ST. LOUIS (KMOX) - A St. Louis County woman admitted Thursday to producing child pornography that involved a two-year-old.
Raven Ainesis Pointer, 26, pleaded guilty to one count of production of child pornography, admitting she used her phone to produce videos containing child sexual abuse material.
The investigation into Pointer began in August of 2023 in Montgomery, Alabama, when Homeland Security Investigations agents learned a man who had been distributing child sexual abuse material had also been communicating with a woman from St. Louis who identified herself as "Raven P."
The man told investigators Pointer sent him videos involving a two-year-old victim, information which was corroborated by his phone.
According to Pointer's plea agreement, investigators identified Pointer and matched details in the videos to her and the location where they had been filmed. Pointer confirmed in an interview with investigators that she was in the videos and also identified the victim.
Pointer is scheduled to be sentenced on Jan. 23, 2025. The charge carries a mandatory minimum sentence of 15 years in prison and a maximum of 30 years.
