Louisiana Man Facing Over 100 Counts of Child Porn & Bestiality
When officers from the Morgan City Police Department began their investigation of Keith E. Taylor, they had no idea what they were getting into. The 66-year-old Louisiana man was arrested late last month and charged with one count of Pornography Involving Juveniles. Unfortunately, that was just the tip of this disgusting iceberg.
According to a report from BRProud, Morgan City Police investigators allegedly uncovered a mountain of evidence against Taylor while looking into allegations against him. After his arrest on the single initial count of Pornography Involving Juveniles, officials reportedly searching Taylor's digital property found a sickening "107 files that contained pornography involving juveniles, with nearly half of them involving juveniles under the age of 13." If found guilty, he could be facing a very long prison sentence. According to Louisiana law RS 14:81.1
(a) Whoever intentionally possesses pornography involving juveniles shall be fined not more than fifty thousand dollars and shall be imprisoned at hard labor for not less than five years or more than twenty years, without benefit of parole, probation, or suspension of sentence.
(b) On a second or subsequent conviction for the intentional possession of pornography involving juveniles, the offender shall be fined not more than seventy-five thousand dollars and imprisoned at hard labor for not less than ten years nor more than forty years, without benefit of parole, probation, or suspension of sentence.
Basically, we're looking at 1,065 years in jail on the light end - but those aren't the only charges levied against Taylor. Investigators also reportedly found 23 files which depicted bestiality. In total, the charges against him are as follows:
- Pornography Involving Juveniles under 13 years of age (52 counts)
- Pornography Involving Juveniles (55 counts)
- Pornography Involving Bestiality (23 counts)
Keith E. Taylor remains in the Morgan City jail while the investigation continues.
