Man Pleads Guilty In Child Exploitation Case

A Port Huron man is now awaiting sentencing after admitting to multiple child exploitation charges. Twenty-year-old Edison Tran pleaded guilty to five counts tied to possessing explicit images of minors and using social media to pressure teenage girls into sending nude photos. Investigators say the case began last fall after a tip from another police department led to a search of his home and phone, where several illegal images were found. Tran faces up to 20 years in prison, with sentencing set for late August.
