SAN DIEGO - A 36-year-old former San Diego police officer pleaded innocent to charges that he downloaded child pornography and encouraged a minor to pose for child porn on the Internet.
Brett Kenneth Hensley pleaded innocent yesterday to a felony count of employing or using a minor in an obscene matter and a felony count of attempted lewd act on a child 14 or 15 years old. ,
Superior Court Judge David Szumowski set bail at $50,000 at yesterday's arraignment, and defense attorney Gerald Blank said Hensley, a 12-year SDPD veteran who resigned last June, would post bail immediately.
Authorities searched Hensley's home 11 months ago, Blank told reporters outside court.
"We have been totally cooperative with this investigation," the attorney said.
No personal contact is alleged, Blank said, noting that Hensley is accused of downloading pornography and encouraging a minor to pose on the Internet.
"These (images) were strictly for his own personal use," Blank said.
Szumowski scheduled an April 22 preliminary hearing for Hensley, who faces up to three years and eight months in prison if convicted, Blank said.
Hensley is also charged with 25 misdemeanor counts of possession of obscene matter depicting a person under 18 engaging in or simulating sexual conduct, prosecutor Geoffrey Allard said.
