St. George man charged for the second time for child pornography

A man convicted of having child pornography two years ago is facing charges a second time.

Joel Stephen Sherrill of Saint George was charged Wednesday with six counts of sexual exploitation of a minor.

An officer who arrested Sherrill in July for drinking, a violation of his probation  - discovered a phone inside the seat of Sherill's walker that contained images of child pornography.

Sherrill told detectives the photos had been taken at a nudist camp.
