A grand jury indictment of Mitchell Vincent, 32, was unsealed earlier this month, charging that he received and distributed child pornography between January 1, 2017 and March 13, 2019 in Barry County.
The allegations are described in the detention motion.
On December 10, 2018, law enforcement officers downloaded a 17-minute video file from a device located at the defendant’s home via the Internet using peer-to-peer software.
The video depicted a four-year-old female being anally raped by an adult male.
A search warrant was executed at the defendant’s home on March 13, 2019, resulting in the seizure of the defendant’s computer. Child pornography was later located on the device during a forensic examination.
The defendant was questioned by the investigators after being advised of his Miranda rights. The defendant readily admitted that he used his computer to download and view images and videos depicting child pornography.
The defendant confessed that he had been viewing child pornography for several years. The defendant also advised the investigators that he had engaged in a sexual act with a five-year-old child when he was a juvenile. This case involves a minor victim
