Lane County, Oregon – An Oregon man who calls himself a children’s photographer pleads not guilty to fifteen counts of encouraging child sex abuse. The Register Guard reports 66-year old Randall Simons was arrested earlier this month in Lane County. This happened after a police investigation involving someone who had been using WiFi from A & W to download inappropriate images. Simons is due back in court August 7th for a pre-trial conference. The Associated Press reports Simons had been a photographer for six-year old Colorado beauty queen JonBenet Ramsey. That was a few months before her murder in 1996. The case is still unsolved. Simons later sold a portfolio of photos of the girl, in make up and curls, for $7,500.
