Inmate Charged After Alleged Sexual Video Chats

By West Kentucky Star Staff

PADUCAH - 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.

  Chain gangs would cost more than the system we have now. There are barely enough guards to run the ship when they're behind bars, let alone working on the side of the road (busting stumps with an axe and cutting weeds with a hand sickle, lol).

  Peter, if memory serves me, the Judge was Clymer, your new Judge Executive. Kids were offered a negotiated plea by the Commonwealth, I think 10 years. The Judge did the right thing and refused the plea wanting to give them more jail time. The kids decided to go to trial and a great and educated JURY gave them 1 year, which was considered time served already awaiting trial. So Clymer did good, your JURY did you dirty.

  SMH....3 hots and a cot! No internet, no tv, no use of a telephone, no visitation. As a matter of fact, bring back the chain gang. The majority of the prisoners wouldn't commit 2nd offenses if they had to work it off.

  I had the same question Robert? Why is there electronic equipment in jail? I know law abiding people who don't have the Internet because they are paying their taxes, let alone face time (generous) with a Juvenile loved one. That's okay, he will only get no more than 6 months and no register like KJ Choi, there was no touching involved and he is barely over being a teen. Knight is doing a good job there. It's not his fault it's a Holiday Inn.
