A 70-year-old Kenosha man, William “Willy” Gregory, has been sentenced to 10 years in prison after pleading guilty to four counts of possession of child pornography. Originally facing 12 charges, Gregory accepted a plea deal that reduced the number of charges. The sentence was handed down by Kenosha County Circuit Court Judge Angelina Gabriele.

The case began when Kenosha Police Detective Deates received a CyberTip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. The tip indicated that explicit imaged were stored on a Google account linked to Gregory. Investigators traced the account’s activity to his residence at 1878 22nd Avenue, Apartment 111, in Kenosha.

On November 8, 2022, authorities, including Detectives Deates and Torres, executed a search warrant at Gregory’s home. Police had the assistance of Iris, the department’s electronic device detection K9. During the search, officers seized multiple electronic devices, including laptops, cell phones, and storage drives. Additionally, physical photographs were discovered in his bedroom, including one disturbing image of a close relative who had been in his care. Many of the images depicted prepubescent children engaged in sex acts with an adult male.

Detective Deates tells KCE that he believes that much of the child pornography found in the Gregory’s home, was produced by Gregory himself, but was unsure that it could be proven. The plea deal insured that the potential victims did not have to testify in open court. According to law enforcement records, Gregory was also suspected in other child sexual assault.

Gregory initially denied involvement, claiming his devices had been hacked. However, investigators found extensive digital evidence supporting the charges.

    Over 2 years ago ?
    Has he been in jail all this time ?
    All that said, where was Gravely on this ?
    Did Gravely charge 12 counts ?
    Has this guy been out on bond?

    Is this the new DA cleaning up after Gravely ??

    10 years starting at 70 ?
    Or does he get 2 years credit to date ?

    1. Checked CCAP and the jail website. In custody since 11/8/22. He’ll be in custody until 2032. No guarantee he’ll live that long.

    1. Stereotype of a pedophile is the opposite. They hide behind this nerd appearance. I worked with Chapter 980s, the most disgusting pedos in WI.

  2. Tie him with the other guy from the previous article, fit them with a couple millstones and toss ‘em in Lake Michigan.

  3. At this point in his life, why even bother with a plea deal?
    He will still be a useless piece of shit upon release.
    Rehabilitation does NOT work.

  4. These arrest’s have been so rampant of late. And there’s plenty more out there. Need to ramp up and get more of these SCUMBAGS off the streets. Beware they can be right next door in your communities. Stay vigilant.

  5. Seems the only way to catch these parasites is when they upload images to Google, AWS, iCloud or other cloud providers. Thank you NCMEC for your work, only wish there were other ways to catch them, like the way
    Chris Hansen did it. 🙂

    1. Look at his appearance, definitely not a man that has taken care of himself. So a 10 year sentence for him is essentially death, he will leave prison in a box.
