A Kenton County man will spend the next two decades behind bars after being handed the maximum sentence for possessing child pornography the lead prosecutor described as horrific. Emmanuel Curry, 21, was arrested in February 2021 after police found 69 files containing illicit images on his phone.
Curry was arrested on February 17, 2021 after Kenton County Police executed a search warrant at his home on McCullum Pike. When police arrived, Curry threw his cell phone out the window of the home, hoping police would not find it. Subsequent search of the phone located 69 files containing the illicit images.
The Assistant Commonwealth's Attorney said the images were so vile and disturbing some included abuse of infants so young they still had hospital bracelets on.
