According to the plea arrangement, on October 17, 2022, an undercover staff member with police published a message online reading, "any pervs in Kentucky." Huey responded and began a private conversation with the agent.
The department said Huey shifted their discussion to another messaging platform and shared several representations of child porn with the worker. Huey admitted that he intentionally distributed these visual representations, knowing they consisted of minors taken part in sexually explicit conduct.
