Child pornographer returned to U.S.

SPOKANE, Wash., Oct. 19 (UPI) -- A man accused of videotaping the sexual assault of his own daughter was returned to Spokane, Wash. to face rape, child pornography and jail jumping charges.

Kenneth John Freeman, 44, was arrested in Hong Kong last May following a worldwide manhunt that tracked him to China where he had been working as a computer consultant for a U.S. company, The Spokane Spokesman-Review reported Friday.

Freeman was indicted by a U.S. court last January on charges of production and transportation of child pornography. At the time he was also wanted in Benton County, Wash., Superior Court on three counts of child rape and jail jumping.

He is accused of producing child pornography at his home.

His daughter, who is now a teenager, was identified as the victim in a child pornography video after appearing on "America's Most Wanted."
