WOODLANDS MAN PLEADS GUILTY TO TRANSPORTATION OF CHILD PORNOGRAPHY

HOUSTON, TX ? Dale Eric Beckham, 33, pleaded guilty before United States District Judge Melinda Harmon on Friday, July 7, 2006, to transportation of child pornography.

Beckham was arrested March 6, 2005, in Ottawa, Canada, and initially charged with luring a 14-year-old boy he met over the Internet to a hotel room, where they had sex. Beckham traveled from his Woodlands area home to Ottawa with a laptop computer and a digital camera, which were seized upon his arrest by Canadian officers for luring and pornography charges. Beckham pleaded guilty to Canadian charges involving the possession of child pornography images and was sentenced in November 2005 to time served since his March 6, 2005, arrest. Thereafter, the Canadian government deported Beckham and banned him from returning to Canada for one year.

The defendant has been in federal custody without bond since his arrest November 24, 2005, upon his return to the Houston area from Canada. After a search of Beckham?s home in the Woodlands on March 11, 2005, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officials found hundreds of images of child pornography on his computers, including pictures of children younger than 12 years of age engaged in sexual activity with adults.

At sentencing, scheduled for October 27, 2006, Beckham faces is no less than five (5) years and up to 20 years imprisonment, as well as a $250,000 fine, $100 special assessment and any term of years up to life of supervised release.

The conviction is the result of an investigation conducted by the United States Immigration and Customs Enforcement Service. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Martha Minnis.
