Puckett Gets 10 Year Sentence for Downloading Child Porn onto his Computer
July 23, 2019
By: Dwayne Page
A man accused of downloading child pornography onto his laptop computer two years ago has been sentenced in DeKalb County Criminal Court.
39 year old Winston Puckett entered a plea Monday to one count of sexual exploitation of a minor (over 50 images) and one count of aggravated sexual exploitation of a minor (less than 25 images). He received a 6 year sentence in one case and 4 years in the other to run consecutively for a total of 10 years and he must serve at least 30% of the term before he is eligible for parole. However, Puckett has already been in jail for 739 days and will be given credit for that time.
Sheriff Patrick Ray said that on Thursday, July 13, 2017 a search warrant was executed by a DeKalb County Sheriff’s Department Detective on a Dell laptop computer belonging to Puckett. The computer was in Puckett’s possession on June 27, 2017 when it was turned over to law enforcement. The search warrant revealed over 400 images of child pornography that had been downloaded to the computer.
