Former Police Spokesman Pleads Guilty to Child Porn Possession

WIlliam Walker faces one to five years in jail plus a fine of $2,500

A former Fairfax County, Virginia, police public information officer pleaded guilty Monday to possession of child pornography.

A judge accepted the pleas from William "Bud" Walker, who was arrested in April 2015 after Fairfax County police began tracking an account depicting underage children in sexual acts with other children. Walker was arrested and charged with 10 counts of possession of child pornography.

Sentencing is scheduled for Aug. 12. Walker faces one to five years in jail plus a fine of $2,500.

He was immediately taken into custody after the court proceedings.
