CAMDEN - A Tennessee man who took part in a child-pornography ring at a South Jersey prison has received an additional 10-year term.
Charles Wesley Bush, 38, of Knoxville is one of seven men to admit he possessed child pornography at Federal Correctional Institute Fort Dix, according to the U.S. Attorney's Office for New Jersey.
He was the fifth member of the group to be sentenced. An eighth suspect, William Noble of Lowell, Massachusetts, awaits trial.
All of the inmates in the ring were serving terms at Fort Dix for prior child pornography crimes, according to the federal prosecutor's office
Court records show Bush received a 12½-year sentence in 2013 for possessing and distributing child pornography in Tennessee.
Bush told investigators that "viewing child pornography had become an addiction, and though he knew it was wrong, he was unable to stop," says a court filing from the Tennessee case.
In the current case, Bush said he possessed a digital storage card at Fort Dix with almost 2,500 images and 95 videos of child pornography, and that he provide the card to another inmate, the federal prosecutor's office said.
He also admitted using a contraband cellphone to obtain child pornography inside the prison.
Bush was sentenced Monday by U.S. District Judge Joseph Rodriguez in Camden.
