SAN ANTONIO — A man is behind bars after police say he sexually assaulted a child, and was found to be in possession of thousands of images of child pornography.
According to arrest records, a child made an outcry of the assault in May, telling police that 63-year-old Patrick Gregory Carey had assaulted them over a period of two years.
When Bexar County deputies questioned Carey, they say he admitted to the assault, adding he would offer the child money for the acts. Carey's wife also reportedly told deputies a family member found child porn on his computer.
He has been charged with criminal solicitation of a minor, and remains jailed as of Thursday night.
