King George man pleads guilty to child porn charge

RICHMOND, Va. (AP) — A King George County man has pleaded guilty to using the Internet on his cellphone to solicit sexually explicit photos from six young girls.

The U.S. attorney’s office says 25-year-old Dane Scott Mihlon’s plea to a single count of enticement of a minor was accepted Thursday by U.S. District Judge John Gibney. He faces a maximum sentence of life in prison when he is sentenced Jan. 14.

In a statement of facts filed with his plea agreement, Mihlon admitted trying to obtain sexually explicit pictures for six girls ranging in age from 12 to 16. On one occasion, he persuaded a 15-year-old Oregon girl to send him at least five photos.
