GARY, Ind. - A Gary man faces federal child pornography charges after at least three pornographic videos involving children were allegedly found on his laptop computer.

Christopher M. Bour, 39, has been charged with receiving child pornography, police said.


Court documents state that Bour had been communicating with a woman and allegedly sent her texts saying he was going to have sex with a toddler, The Times of Munster reported.



The woman told the FBI about the texts, which Bour later told officials were part of a fantasy and role-playing.

Court documents state that Bour told officials he started watching child pornography two years ago and estimates he has downloaded less than 100 videos.
