GRANTS PASS, Ore. (AP) — Oregon prosecutors say James Auchincloss, half-brother of the late Jacqueline Kennedy Onassis, will plead guilty next week to child pornography charges.

Jackson County Deputy District Attorney David Hoppe (HOP-ee) said Friday that Auchincloss, who lives in Ashland, will appear in court Wednesday in Medford.

Hoppe said Auchincloss will plead guilty to two felony counts of encouraging child sex abuse, the charge generally brought against people possessing child pornography.

Auchincloss was indicted a year ago after his longtime personal assistant, Edward McManus, told investigators he had seen Auchincloss and a co-defendant, Dennis Vickoren, viewing pictures of naked boys in sexual poses at Auchincloss’ home.

Vickoren is also scheduled to plead guilty.
