PONCA, Neb. -- A man accused of sucking on the toes of several children and rubbing his penis on another child's feet has pleaded not guilty to child pornography and numerous other charges.
Jose Fregoso, 27, of Wakefield, Nebraska, entered his written plea Wednesday in Dixon County District Court to three counts of possession of a visual depiction of sexually explicit conduct, 10 counts of felony child abuse and one count of third-degree sexual assault of a child.
Fregoso was arrested July 29 after a Nebraska State Patrol investigator observed three photos of naked children on Fregoso's phone during a child welfare visit at his home. According to court documents, Fregoso told investigators he did not deliberately acquire the photos.
Fregoso told investigators he has a foot fetish and had sucked on the feet of one child who is under age 12 almost every week for about four years and that he had touched his penis to the child's feet approximately once a month for the past two years.
