MCDONOUGH, Ga. — A McDonough man will spend 20 years behind bars for possessing hundreds of images of child pornography, according to the Henry County Police Department.
Thirty-nine-year-old Jarrett Leopard will also have to register as a sex offender for life and pay a $5,000 fine.
Police added that he was convicted on all 20 counts of sexual exploitation of children back in July during a jury trial.
At the time, the judge in the trial called the images of toddlers and elementary school-aged children being sexually assaulted found in Leopard's possession as "horrific."
According to a release, the Georgia Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force began investigating Leopard after he uploaded several child pornography images from his McDonough home to a public photo-sharing website.
Police later got themselves a search warrant and found more than 900 images of child pornography on his cell phone.
