Muldrow Man Pleads Guilty to Child Porn Charges


The United States Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Oklahoma has announced that Hunter Jacob James Hope, 21, of Muldrow pleaded guilty to seven counts of production of child pornography, and one count of possession of child pornography. According to the plea agreement, he will face between 262 and 327 months in prison and a fine of up to $250,000.

According to court documents, Hope engaged in a pattern of conduct that involved threatening to share sensitive (typically undressed or partially undressed) images of minors unless the minors either engaged in sex acts with him or provided him with sexually explicit images of themselves over the internet.

The charges arose from an investigation by the Sallisaw Police Department and the Department of Homeland Security, Homeland Security Investigations.

The Hon. Kimberly E. West, U.S. Magistrate Judge in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Oklahoma in Muskogee, accepted the plea and ordered the completion of a pre-sentence investigation report.

Special Assistant U.S. Attorney Gwendelynn Bills represented the United States.
