MONTGOMERY COUNTY, KY. (ABC36 NEWS NOW) – A Mount Sterling man has been indicted on multiple child pornography charges in Montgomery County.
According to the Kentucky Attorney General’s Office, a grand jury indicted 38-year-old Justin Eller this week on 12 felony charges for allegedly sharing sexually abusive images and videos involving children.
Investigators say most of the videos allegedly involved minors between the ages of 12 and 18, though at least one video included a child younger than 12.
