Moore, OK<\/strong> \u2014 (TFTP<\/a>) In September, former Oklahoma Sen. Ralph Shortey<\/a> was accused in a federal indictment of multiple counts of child sex trafficking and child pornography offenses. Over the weekend, Shortey agreed to plead guilty to a single\u00a0child sex trafficking charge in exchange for three other charges to be dismissed. He now\u00a0faces a minimum of 10 years in prison but could be sent away for life.<\/p>\n

\u201cMr. Shortey feels this is a necessary step in putting this painful and humiliating ordeal behind him, for both himself, his family and for the state of Oklahoma,\u201d Shortey\u2019s attorney Ed Blau\u00a0said<\/a>\u00a0on Friday.<\/p>\n

After the federal grand jury meeting in Oklahoma City returned their four indictments, Shorty, 35, originally pleaded not guilty. He wiped away tears as officials read out his child sex trafficking and child pornography offenses. However, given the evidence against him, as detailed in the graphic\u00a0federal indictment<\/a>, Shortey\u2019s attorneys likely knew he had no grounds for a not guilty plea.<\/p>\n
