As Expected, Former Local TV Weatherman Pleads Guilty To Child Porn Charges

Franklin County Sheriff's Office

Former local tv weatherman Mike Davis pleaded guilty Thursday to child pornography charges. 

Authorities say he downloaded and emailed the materials to himself over a period of seven years. His attorney has filed a motion asking that Davis be sent to a therapy program. The motion says Davis used pornography in an attempt to self-medicate after dealing with various mental health issues for years, including depression. The county prosecutor is asking for prison time.

Jim has been with WCBE since 1996. Before that he worked as a reporter at another Columbus radio station, and for three newspapers in Southwest Florida.
