A former Roman Catholic Deacon from the West Island has pleaded guilty to several child pornography charges.
William Kokesch entered the guilty plea in court Friday morning to the three crimes he was accused of: production, possession and distribution of child pornography.
He is facing anywhere from one to 10 years in prison.
Kokesch was arrested in December 2012 and was granted bail soon afterward, under the condition he refrained from using the internet and cameras, and avoided public areas where children were likely to gather.
Police initially said they seized more than 2,000 images from his home at the time of his arrest and records of chat messages on pedophilic websites.
