Ashley Marie Weber, Jr. has admitted to a child pornography charge, United States Attorney William J. Ihlenfeld, II announced.
Weber, 38, Clarksburg, pleaded guilty Friday to one count of “Aiding and Abetting Production of Child Pornography.” Weber admitted to using a minor child to engage in sexually explicit conduct and producing child pornography from that conduct in June 2020 in Taylor County.
