Former California state prosecutor convicted of child pornography charges
Son of Watergate operative G. Gordon Liddy found guilty
SAN DIEGO, Calif. (KYMA, KECY) - A former California state prosecutor from the San Diego area has been found guilty of possessing child pornography.
Federal agents arrested Raymond Liddy at his Coronado home in 2017 after an internet service provider reported him for uploading pornographic images of children. He faces up to 10-years in prison when sentenced on May 1.
Liddy started working for California's attorney general's office since 2008. The office placed him on administrative leave after his arrest. It now says he no longer works there.
Raymond Liddy is the son of noted Watergate operative, G. Gordon Liddy. Liddy helped orchestrate the 1972 burglary that lead to President Richard Nixon's resignation. Liddy himself spent more than four-years in prison for conspiracy, burglary, and refusing to testify before a Senate committee.
