Former Roane County attorney Kent Booher, 61, was found guilty of several sex crimes against children by a federal jury on Monday, WBIR reports. Booher was disbarred by the Tennessee Supreme Court in 2014 after pleading guilty in a Loudon County statutory rape case. The new conviction involves two counts of enticement, felony sexual offense against a minor while on a sex offender registry, sex trafficking of a child, and attempted production of child pornography. He is facing 25 years to life in prison, and will be sentenced in August.
