RACINE — A 36-year-old man accused of possessing child pornography pleaded not guilty in Racine County Courthouse on Wednesday.

De Leon, who is 36, faces 10 felony charges that each carry a fine up to $100,000, a prison sentence up to 25 years, or both. The court can also impose a $500 surcharge for each image or copy of an image recovered.

According to the criminal complaint, Snapchat sent a report to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children on Sept. 11, 2023, after a user reportedly uploaded an image depicting child pornography.

The Wisconsin Department of Justice’s Division of Criminal Investigation assigned the tip to the Racine County Sheriff’s Office RCSO investigators reportedly linked the information to De Leon’s address in the 3600 block of Pierce Boulevard.

De Leon is scheduled to appear in court Jan. 6 for status conference.
