Forsyth Township child porn suspect pleads

MARQUETTE, MI--   A Forsyth Township man has accepted a plea deal related to a child pornography case.

Cory Pierce, 52, was charged last October with five counts of possession of child sexually abusive material and five counts of using a computer to commit a crime.  He was already in jail for second-degree criminal sexual conduct at the time the additional charges were levied.

Wednesday Pierce pleaded guilty to the five possession charges. In exchange, the five counts of using a computer to commit a crime were dropped. 

Sentencing is set for February 23 in Marquette County Circuit Court.  

Nicole was born near Detroit but has lived in the U.P. most of her life. She graduated from Marquette Senior High School and attended Michigan State and Northern Michigan Universities, graduating from NMU in 1993 with a degree in English.
