Two Grovetown men have been indicted in federal court for allegedly possessing child pornography.
Jordan Logan, 35, and Johnathan Malone, 22, were indicted by a U.S. District Court grand jury on one count each of possession of child pornography, according to U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of Georgia Bobby Christine.
In both cases, Georgia Bureau of Investigation probes reportedly resulted in illegal images being found on devices belonging to accused.
“Cyber exploitation of children is at epidemic levels, and we commend our law enforcement partners for their diligence in finding those who would engage in such abhorrent behavior,” said Christine. “We likewise will be diligent in prosecuting these cases to the fullest extent of the law.”
If convicted, Logan and Malone face up to 20 years in federal prison, followed by sex offender registration.
