Calling Nancy Grace

James Auchincloss, half-brother of the late Jackie O., has been indicted on child porn charges along with another man.

Details:

Mr. Auchincloss, 62, was known for offering observations, recollections and opinions – sometimes pointed – about the Kennedy family, which has struggled to keep a privacy curtain around its members’ very public lives. Mr. Auchincloss served on the board of Oregon Stage Works, a theater program for children, prior to stepping down when news of the investigation broke in June. David Hoppe, the deputy district attorney assigned to the case, said Mr. Auchincloss is not likely to be held until the trial. “Hopefully though, due to his lack of criminal history he would be eligible for probation,” he said.

Still more:

Deputy District Attorney David Hoppe said a plea bargain is typical for the charges against Auchincloss and that he likely would remain free pending resolution of the case. Hoppe noted that Auchincloss is not charged with any production, sale or distribution of child pornography — only possession and duplication — meaning that he may not have to serve any jail time if convicted.

That should get the Kennedy haters' blood boiling, even as Auchincloss doesn't have much to do with the rest of the family.
