(CNN) — A lawyer who served in the Clinton administration and more recently was an adviser to California’s lieutenant governor pleaded guilty to a child porn charge in a San Diego federal court Monday.
Wade Rowland Sanders admitted to having 600 images of minors on his computer, including a video depicting “several prepubescent females engaged in sexual conduct with an adult male and performing oral sex on one another,” according to a statement from U.S. Attorney Karen Hewitt.
FBI agents raided Sanders’ home last May after they suspected his home Internet service account was used to download several pictures and a video showing underage girls having sex with adult men, according to an investigator’s sworn statement.
Sanders was a U.S. Navy Swift boat captain during the Vietnam War, where he earned the Silver Star, Bronze Star and Purple Heart. He retired from the U.S. Navy as a captain.
Sanders was chosen by fellow Swift boat veteran John Kerry to introduce him at the 2004 Democratic Convention, when the senator accepted the presidential nomination.
