An Augusta man was sentenced Tuesday to nearly six years in a child pornography case. Jonathan Burgess, 58, pleaded guilty in December to one count of possession of child pornography, admitting to having child pornography images of a minor who hadn’t reached the age of 12 in Hampshire County in September 2019.
During a search of Burgess’s phone, investigators reportedly found more than 6,700 child pornography images. A search of his email account found more than 600 additional images, according to prosecutors.
After serving the 70 month sentence, Burgess will be on supervised release for 25 years.
