NC man who worked as Santa pleads guilty to child porn charges
RALEIGH, NC (WTVD) — A 64-year-old Raleigh man who worked as a Santa Claus has pleaded guilty to child pornography charges.
Leander Dewey Jones pled guilty in federal court Monday to one count of manufacturing child pornography. He was originally charged with 12 counts of second-degree sexual exploitation of a minor following his arrest last year.
However, authorities revealed that Jones, who was employed as a Santa Claus and magician for kids’ parties, was discovered producing child pornography while two children were in his care.
