WASHINGTON (AP) - A U.S. Naval Academy midshipman has pleaded guilty to possessing child pornography.
Twenty-three-year-old Michael Pollard entered a guilty plea Tuesday as part of an agreement with Navy prosecutors. Pollard, of Apopka, Fla., also pleaded guilty to giving a false statement.
Pollard faces prison time, fines and dismissal from the Navy as potential punishment for possessing the pornography in his Naval Academy dorm room.
The offenses happened between July 2003 and August 2007.
Pollard is expected to be sentenced later Tuesday at the Washington Navy Yard.
