A Massapequa man with a history of sexually abusing children pleaded guilty to child exploitation Friday, according to Newsday.

Jay Kroll, 58, faces a mandatory sentence of life in prison plus 10 years stemming from a 2013 incident, according to the report. Homeland Security reportedly believed Kroll had been accessing child pornography and discovered hundreds of pictures of him sexually abusing a young boy.

In the 1990s, Kroll served six years behind bars for sodomizing an 11-year-old boy, the report states. Read the full story here.
