[Sugar Cookie]

A South Boston man faces up to 105 years in prison on multiple charges of possession of child pornography.

Jerry Remines, 56, was found guilty of 11 counts of possession of child pornography earlier this week in a Halifax County Circuit Court.

During his bench trial, prosecutors showed Remines repeatedly accessed child porn on his cellphone between August and October of 2019.

The Commonwealth presented approximately 100 images Remines accessed, including images depicting the apparent sexual torture of children.

Remines participated in online chat groups, where he said he was "sick" and looking for "perverted" pornography, according to evidence presented in trial; he also asked to be added to "taboo" or "young" chat groups.

Judge Kimberly White, when announcing her verdict, noted the images were "exceeding violent and disturbing."

Remines also previously pleaded guilty to one misdemeanor count of nonconsensual filming of a nude person in the recording of a young woman undressing to shower while visiting his home.

Remines was sentenced to one year and four months for six of the misdemeanor counts.

I see he wears the term "sick" as a badge of honor. May we castrate him and have him wear his yawbles as proof of penance?

Jerry Remines of South Boston was sentenced to 20 years of incarceration on Friday in the Halifax County Circuit Court for one count of possession of child pornography, 10 counts of possession of child pornography, second or subsequent offense, and one count of computer trespass.

In delivering the sentence, Judge Kimberley S. White noted that if Remines, and people like Remines, did not seek out child pornography, children would not be victimized by its creation, noting that every image Remines viewed was a re-victimization of the child depicted.

Judge White also noted the extreme nature of the pornography Remines sought, including sexual abuse of infants and the sexual torture of children.

The defense argued that Remines should receive a minimal sentence because these were his first criminal convictions and he had been a distinguished soldier, asking that the defendant be sentenced to only four years.

Remines, when given the opportunity to speak before pronouncing sentence, stated he didn’t know how all this happened, and blamed a number of health ailments for child pornography being present on his phone.

Remines previously pleaded guilty to six counts of misdemeanor computer trespass. Authorities say he accessed customer phones during his business as a cellphone repairman and transferred customers' private pictures and videos to his own devices.

That's ultimately what led authorities to busting Remines on the child porn charges. One of Remines' customers noticed his images had been stolen and reported it. During the service of the search warrant related to that case, child porn was uncovered.

Further, Remines also previously pleaded guilty to one misdemeanor count of nonconsensual filming of a nude person in the recording of a young woman undressing to shower while visiting his home.

Remines was sentenced to one year and four months for six of the misdemeanor counts.
