EUGENE, Ore. (AP) — A Eugene man has pleaded guilty to repeatedly sexually abusing a boy and filming some of the sexual encounters.

The Register-Guard reports that David James Woodworth made the plea Tuesday to 20 counts that included sexual abuse, sodomy and using a child in a display of sexually explicit conduct. He previously denied the allegations.

Judge Charles Zennache says Woodworth could face more than 306 years in prison, since 16 of the charges carry mandatory minimum prison terms under state law.

Court documents show that Lane County authorities arrested Woodworth in September after a woman said she found in his computer dozens of photos of him sexually abusing a boy.

An affidavit shows the woman also told authorities she found child pornography in a photo album and on his cell phone.
