Inmate Charged After Alleged Sexual Video Chats

An inmate at McCracken County Jail is now facing charges related to sex crimes.

The McCracken County Sheriff's Department says they were contacted Thursday by McCracken County Jailer David Knight after he learned that a man may have communicated in a sexual video chat with a juvenile. 

Detectives investigated and found evidence supporting the accusation. They say 21-year-old Trevon Elmore of Paducah had communicated with a juvenile twice over the last few days, and the juvenile performed sex acts and showed intimate body parts in the video. Elmore allegedly confirmed that the sexual communication had taken place. 

Elmore was charged with two counts of use of electronics to procure a minor for sex offenses, and two counts of use of a minor in a sexual performance.

He remains in McCracken County Jail following an arrest in February on a 1st degree robbery charge.
