Brian Wilcox, who recently was granted medical attention for his flatulence, groin numbness and tooth decay, pleaded guilty today to photographing and creating pornographic images of a child relative.
While pleading guilty before Tampa-based federal Magistrate Elizabeth A. Jenkins, he acknowledged he has “more than 10 images on his computer but does not know the exact amount of images on his computer,” records show.
One of the charges against him, production of child pornography, carries a 15-year minimum sentence behind bars.
Court records show that the Photobucket, a picture sharing Web site, had found a user had posted images of child pornography.
The Hillsborough County Sheriff’s Office investigated and traced the images to a Bright House Networks account. A subpoena for records led to Wilcox, who lived at 10508 Beneva Drive in Tampa.
A plea agreement says Wilcox acknowledged taking graphic photos of an 11-year-old while she slept and acknowledged posting the images on Photobucket. It also says his computer had about 120 images of child pornography, including a “sadistic image” of girl about 5 years old.

The news doesn’t report the 11 year old was his own daughter, while she was asleep. I believe the justice system has served the Tampa community as well as our general public to the fullest. he WILL get what’s coming to him
This bastard ought to be shot! He’s going to have more than gas problems when he gets to prison. WHO CARES if HE has medical problems… what about the emotional scars of the innocent children he violated??? I hope he rots from the inside out.
Just what does “Flatulent” have to do with this article. This is just sensationalism, trying to grab a reader. Is it not a bad enough or compelling enough headline to say “Child Pornograoher Pleads Guilty”?
A headline such as the one here belongs in the tabloids, not a reputable newspaper.
