Recently, the residents of Towson were shocked when two individuals were arrested by police for running a child pornography operation out of their home. Both John Nicklas and Shannon Honea were being held for $5 million bail but the court decided to deny them bail altogether. When police obtained a search warrant they seized CD’s, DVD’s, and computers. In those records the police found videos in which both Nicklas and Honea participate in sex acts. Nicklas faces 13 charges including second, third, and fourth degree sex acts, two counts of permitting sex with a child, and filming child pornography. Honea is also charged with many of the same charges as Nicklas but in addition is charged with soliciting children for child pornography and four counts of promoting and distributing child pornography.
