Juneau man indicted on child pornography charges

A Juneau man was indicted Thursday on charges of possessing or accessing child pornography, according to court documents.

A Juneau grand jury indicted 27-year-old Joshua Youll on seven counts of possession of child pornography, all Class C felonies. This is Youll’s second time facing multiple charges related to child pornography, according to court documents. In late 2018, Youll pleaded guilty to a charge of possession of child pornography, according to the Alaska Court System.

The charges may be punishable by up to 20 years in prison, lifetime supervised release and $250,000 in fines.

Youll is scheduled to be arraigned at 2:30 p.m. Thursday, Feb. 2, according to the court system.
