Galax man charged with double murder pleads guilty to child pornography

GALAX (WSLS 10) - A Galax man accused of murdering a mother and her 21-month-old daughter pleaded guilty to child pornography charges on Wednesday.

Richard Nofsinger agreed to plead guilty in federal court to three counts of manufacturing child pornography and prosecutors dropped the other five counts.

Investigators said they recovered videos from Nofsinger's cell phone in which he exploited at least two victims.

He will spend at least 15 years in prison and could spend up to 90 years for these charges.

The murder case against Nofsinger is still pending.
