Rairden will also be found as a Tier I sex offender, court documents said, meaning he will need to register his address each year for the next 15 years. He is currently free on bail and is scheduled to be sentenced Oct. 18.
As part of the guilty plea, the Montgomery County Prosecutor’s Office agreed to dismiss 20 counts of pandering sexually oriented material involving a minor, documents said.
Rairden was originally charged on the dismissed counts after the Oakwood Public Safety Department received a tip from the Internet Crimes Against Children task force that he was downloading and trading child pornography on Twitter in the city, according to the Montgomery County Prosecutor’s Office.
A bill of information was filed Thursday on the eight counts which Rairden ended up pleading guilty to.
