JENSEN BEACH, Fla., Sept. 21 (UPI) -- Authorities in Florida said a man who blamed 10 counts of possession of child pornography on his cat is facing 90 additional charges of the crime.
The Martin County Sheriff's Office said Keith Riley Griffin, 48, of Jensen Beach, Fla., was charged in early August with 10 counts of possession of child pornography and is now facing 100 counts of the offense, TCPalm.com reported Monday.
