An Oregon man who pleaded guilty to accessing and uploading child sexual assault materials was sentenced to probation and weekend jail, according to officials.
Scott Johnson, 27, pleaded guilty on Wednesday to three counts of Encouraging Child Sexual Abuse in the First Degree.
Johnson told investigators that people would sometimes"send him a message asking him if he wants to see something, they send it," according to court documents. Investigators determined someone sent Johnson several links, and after he opened the first one, he then clicked on additional links, knowing what they contained.
A Columbia County grand jury indicted Johnson in August 2021 on four counts of encouraging child sexual abuse. The Columbia County District Attorney’s office told FOX 12 that the district attorney offered Johnson"He just rejected our offer, pleaded guilty, and asked the judge for probation over our objection," the district attorney's office said.
