A Winchester man facing 21 charges related to explicit images of children pleaded guilty to two Thursday.

Vincent Gray, 22, of 419 E. Washington St., changed his pleas for one count of possession of matter portraying a sexual performance by a minor and one count of promoting matter portraying the sexual performance of a minor. Prosecutors recommended he serve five years for each, which would run concurrently.

The remaining 19 counts of possession were dismissed as part of the plea agreement.

Gray is set to be sentenced Oct. 17 in Clark Circuit Court.

According to court records, Gray was arrested Oct. 26, 2017, following a Kentucky State Police investigation. KSP detectives said they received a tip two months earlier from the National Center for Missing and Exploited children about an explicit image of a child which was posted online in a chat room.

Detectives determined the IP address used to post the image, which was registered to a customer at 419 E. Washington St. The chat room’s records showed the IP address was active when the image was posted in June 2017.

State police executed a search warrant at the residence and confiscated a cell phone, a laptop computer, two tablet computers and a hard drive as evidence.
