WOODSTOCK, Ill. - Mike Jones appeared in circuit court Thursday to face five felony counts of possession of child pornography and nine misdemeanor counts of obscenity.
The owner of adult content wholesaler L&M Enterprises and its Website CDbabes.com, Jones was indicted by a county grand jury and arrested June 26 after a yearlong investigation and a five-hour raid by police last fall. He is free on a $50,000 bond.
Thursday?s hearing was a formality under Illinois law, where Jones was formally confronted with the charges and had the option of entering a plea.
Jones? attorney, J.D. Obenberger, declined to enter a plea and demanded prosecutors produce the images Jones? is accused of possessing. Police say the photos show women with rattraps and clothespins on their bodies.
If convicted, Jones could be sentenced to up to five years in prison. He is due back in court Aug. 16.
