CAMDEN, N.J. (AP) - A federal prison inmate already serving time for trafficking in child pornography has received another lengthy term for possessing child sex abuse images and videos inside the prison.
Federal prosecutors in New Jersey say Charles Wesley Bush received a 10-year sentence Monday, a term he will serve after his current sentence is completed. The 38-year-old Knoxville, Tennessee man had pleaded guilty in May.
Prosecutors say Bush was among several Fort Dix inmates who used contraband cellphones and removable storage cards to share child porn. Six other inmates have pleaded guilty to similar charges.
Bush admitted having a memory card with 2,471 images and 95 videos of child porn, some of which depicted prepubescent children. He also admitted using a smartphone to view and possess child porn.
