LAS VEGAS – Attorney David Clark Whittemore has pleaded to one charge of receiving child pornography on his home and work computers, U.S. Attorney Daniel G. Bogden said Friday.
Whittemore, 51, of Las Vegas, is a member of a prominent Nevada family and was formerly with the state’s largest law firm.
Bogden said Whittemore was charged after he told Nevada gambing investigators interviewing him about a gambling license that he accessed pornography Web sites that were “probably illegal.” Whittemore told investigators in the April 2005 interview that he used computers in his office at the Lionel Sawyer & Collins law firm in Las Vegas and his home in Accident, Md. to access the sites, according to a guilty plea memorandum.
Two days later, authorities examined Whittemore’s hard drive at the firm and found images of child pornography, Bogden said.
Whittemore was initially was charged with two counts of receipt and two counts of possession of child pornography.
He is the brother of powerful attorney, lobbyist and developer Harvey Whittemore.
David Clark Whittemore, who is no longer employed at Lionel Sawyer & Collin, faces a maximum penalty 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.
He was released on bond and is scheduled to be sentenced May 19 before U.S. District Judge Roger L. Hunt.
