A Jamaican man, who was caught with child pornography on arrival on a flight at Orlando International Airport in Florida, USA earlier this year, is now facing a maximum penalty of 20 years in a US federal prison.
On Thursday it was announced that a jury had found Anthony Carl Spence, 45, guilty of transporting and possessing child pornography.
He is scheduled to be sentenced on October 12.
Evidence in court indicated that on February 6, Spence arrived at Orlando International Airport from Jamaica with a smart phone.
During a routine border search of the phone, agents located a video on the instrument depicting a man sexually abusing a toddler.
Law enforcement agents later located a second video on the phone depicting a child of between seven and nine years old, engaging in sexually-explicit conduct.
During an interview with law enforcement officers, Spence reportedly admitted that he had shared the videos with persons in Jamaica, but claimed that he thought he had deleted the videos before he headed to the US.
