Naperville Man Recorded Boys Having Sex Acts Performed on Them: Indictment

CHICAGO — A 53-year-old Naperville man has been indicted on child pornography charges after he allegedly recorded minor boys having sex acts performed on them.

Douglas A. Willis has been charged with one count of conspiracy to produce child pornography and one count of producing child pornography. He pleaded not guilty Tuesday during an arraignment before U.S. Magistrate Judge Mary M. Rowland in Chicago.

According to the indictment, Willis and an unindicted co-conspirator agreed that the co-conspirator would recruit boys under the age of 18 to engage in sex acts and pose for nude photos and videos in exchange for money. The co-conspirator, who is identified in the indictment as Individual A, brought the boys to Willis’ residence, where the boys were given controlled substances and alcohol to gain their compliance and reduce their inhibitions, the indictment states.

Willis took photographs and videos of the boys displaying their genitals and having sex acts performed on them by Individual A, according to the indictment. On occasion, Individual A took photographs and videos of the boys having sex acts performed on them by Willis, the indictment states.

Willis paid the boys, and Individual A kept copies of the recordings, according to the indictment. The conduct charged in the indictment began in September 1993 and continued until at least August 2001.

Federal authorities pursued the charges after recently discovering evidence in the case.

Each count of the indictment carries a minimum prison sentence of ten years, and a maximum of 20 years.
