120 years in jail for child porn

PHILADELPHIA - A PENNSYLVANIA man has been sentenced to 120 years in prison for making a huge cache of child pornography that shows him sexually assaulting a dozen children, including infants at a girlfriend's in-home day care.

The FBI found John Jackey Worman with more than 1 million images of child pornography.

Worman made girls perform sex acts for school lunch money, and had another girlfriend's son sleep in a locked wooden crate in the basement for several years.

The presiding judge describes 42-year-old John Jackey Worman as a seldom-employed sociopath who sponged off women and sadistically coerced his young victims.

The two ex-girlfriends were also convicted in the case. Remarkably, the judge found, Worman has no mental-healthdiagnosis or childhood trauma that would help explain his crimes.

Psychiatric tests conducted by the Bureau of Prisons revealed only that he is a pedophile with an anti-social personality disorder.

Worman described his childhood as a good one in which he was free to do as he liked. He told the medical staff he started using alcohol and marijuana at age 11, and dropped out of high school as a sophomore.

He lived in his mother's basement in Colwyn through his 40s, sometimes with a girlfriend's three children - the woman herself never moved in. And he rigged hidden cameras at the home of another girlfriend, baby sitter Concetta Jackson.

Ex-girlfriend Dorothy Prawdzik of Drexel Hill was sentenced to 30 years in prison for undressing and posing young girls for Worman, and once holding the camera while he tried to rape an infant.

Prawdzik, 45, also took part in a three-way sexual encounter with Worman and a 10-year-old girl.

The mother of one of the abused infants testified on Wednesday, describing herself now as a tortured, overprotective parent. Her daughter does not remember the abuse - but her mother says she cannot forget it.

Worman told the prison doctors that he felt no remorse. Worman declined to make a statement in court on Wednesday. -- AP
