ST. LOUIS – A 37-year-old man from Washington, Missouri, admitted in court Wednesday to recording child sexual abuse material.

Todd Kelly pleaded guilty to one count of child pornography, where he recorded his sexual activity with a 14-year-old, according to court documents.

Prosecutors say that Kelly made the recordings on his cell phone between June and July 2023.

The victim’s father contacted police after discovering the relationship in Aug. 2023.

The 37-year-old is scheduled to be sentenced on July 28, 2025. However, the U.S. Attorney’s office recommends a prison sentence of 25 years.
