Burien man sentenced to 15 years in child pornography case
A registered sex offender with a prior conviction of child molestation was sentenced to
15 years in prison for receipt of child pornography. Charles Glenn Perkins, 53, pleaded
guilty in June 2013 following an investigation by the U. S. Immigration and Customs
Enforcement's Homeland Security Investigations(HSI). U.S. District Court Judge
Ricardo S. Martinez recommended that Perkins be placed at a prison with sex offender
treatment and imposed a 15 year term of supervised release following his prison
sentence. Perkins was identified by law enforcement when he tried to enter Canada on
December 29, 2012 and was denied entry due to his prior convictions for sex offenses.
Perkins is a registered sex offender in Washington State having previously been
convicted of child molestation offenses in Kitsap County in 1987 and 1990. The
Canadian Border agents send Perkin's laptop for screening and investigators noted two
pictures of nude children. Agents then obtained a search warrant for his Burien
residence. A review of his digital media revealed that he had received and possessed
approximately 610 images and 10 videos of minors engaged in sexually explicit
conduct.
