TYLER – A 29-year-old Henderson man has pleaded guilty to child pornography violations. Enrique Estrada Quintana pleaded guilty to three counts of production of child pornography Friday in Tyler before U.S. Magistrate Judge John D. Love.
According to prosecutors, on Feb. 2, a search warrant was executed at Quintana’s residence, during which several computers, cameras, and other forms of digital media were seized. A forensic examination of the seized items revealed several thousand images of child pornography and over 10,000 videos of child pornography. It was also determined that Quintana actually took approximately 100 pictures and 20 videos of three different minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct. Some of the images depicted prepubescent children under the age of 12 engaged in sexually explicit conduct, and some of the images involved the commission of a sexual act. Quintana was indicted by a federal grand jury on Mar. 2.
Quintana faces at least 15 years and up to 30 years in federal prison at sentencing. A sentencing date has not been set.
