A Wayne County man has been charged in a child sexual abuse investigation by Kentucky State Police.
State Police say 25-year-old Jorge Martin Vasquez Jr. of Monticello was initially arrested in May and charged with 20 counts of distributing matter portraying a minor over the age of 12 in a sexual performance along with 20 counts of possessing matter portraying a minor under the age of 12 in a sexual performance.
State Police also charged Vasquez with 20 counts of promoting a minor under the age of 16 in a sexual performance, a Class B felony punishable by 10-20 years in prison.
Last week, state police say the investigation continued with more charges filed against Vasquez in Pulaski County, including rape-third degree.
State Police say this investigation is still on going and additional charges expected.
Vasquez remains lodged in the Wayne County Detention Center.
