A former Bakersfield college basketball coach is headed to prison after admitting to possessing child sex abuse material while running a prostitution operation that spanned three states.
Kevin Mays, a former assistant coach at Cal State University Bakersfield and one-time player for the program, was sentenced Thursday to four years in prison and ordered to register as a sex offender for life, the Kern County District Attorney’s Office said.
Earlier this month, Mays pleaded no contest to felony charges of possession of child or youth pornography, pimping and possession of a controlled substance while armed with a firearm.
The plea deal dramatically reduced his legal exposure. Mays had originally been charged with nearly a dozen felony and misdemeanor counts before prosecutors agreed to dismiss the remaining charges, according to The Bakersfield Californian.

Police searched his car and found multiple firearms and a large stash of drugs. They looked through his phone, finding around 600 photos of children as young as 4.
The ordeal resulted in Mays’ charge, which included felonies such as pimping and charges for possession of automatic firearms, possession of methamphetamine and marijuana with intent to sell and child pornography.
Mays’ defense attorney, David Torres, told the Bakersfield Californian his client was “truly remorseful.”

Wow, he must be made of money if he had multiple automatic weapons. Either that or the “journalist” knows nothing about guns.
“Wow, he must be made of money if he had multiple automatic weapons. Either that or the “journalist” knows nothing about guns.“
According to the dumbasses that write these stories, I own about 20 of these automatic firearms. In fact I carry one everyday. It really pisses me off I got to pull the trigger every time I want it to shoot.
I hope the guys in his cell block make him airtight.
4 years ? In the 50’s he’d have gotten 20 at least .
Thanks. I was going to guess the race but your picture proves my point.
OMG!! The pimp be black!!
He didn’t study the Velvet Jones school of pimping book
Four freakin’ years.
I am no legal scholar, but why does this idiot “journalist” use the term “pimping”? Poorly written article all around.
they father who bought his son a gun that was later used in a school shooting got 4 times more prison time.
I guessed right again!.....................Damn I’m good!...........

Kiddie Porn.
Sex.
