Whitney sentenced Charles Kevin Bridges to 121 months in prison Aug.13 on federal child pornography charges, an- nounced Anne M. Tomp- kins, U.S. Attorney for the Western District of North Carolina. Bridges was ordered to register as a sex offender and to serve the rest of his life under court supervision after he is released from prison. Judge Whitney also ordered Bridges to pay $3,000 as restitution to a child pornography victim. U.S Attorney Tompkins was joined in making the announcement by John A. Strong, Special Agent in Charge of the Federal Bu- reau of Investigation, Char- lotte Division and Chief Stacy Conley of the Gasto- nia Police Department. In March 2014, Bridges, 56, of Kings Mountain, pleaded guilty to one count of receiving child pornogra- phy and one count of pos- session of child pornography. According to filed documents and state- ments made in court, in Jan- vary 2013, a law enforcement officer con- ducting an investigation downloaded images and videos containing child pornography from Bridges’ computer, using a peer-to- peer network. Law enforcement exe- cuted a search warrant at Bridges' residence and seized a laptop computer and a USB drive. Court records say a forensic examination indi- cated that Bridges possessed an extensive collection of Charles Kevin Bridges images and videos depicting children as young as tod- dlers engaging in sexual acts with adults. Bridges has been in fed- eral custody since his bond was revoked in March 2013. He will be transferred to the custody of the Federal Bu- reau of Prisons upon desig- nation of a federal facility. Federal sentences are served without the possibility of pa- role. The investigation was handled by the FBI and Gas- tonia Police department with assistance from the Cleve- land County Sheriff’s Of- fice. Assistant ~~ U.S. Attorneys Cortney S. Ran- dall and David A. Thorneloe of the U.S. Attorney’s Office handled the prosecution. This case was brought as part of Project Safe Child- hood, a nationwide initiative launched in 2006 by the De- partment of Justice, aimed at combating the growing on- line sexual exploitation of children. By combining re- sources, federal, state and local agencies are better able to locate, apprehend and prosecute individuals who exploit children via the In- ternet, as well as to identify and rescue those victims.
