Lynnville resident Kevin Lee White has been sentenced to nine years in state prison after accepting a plea deal for child sexual exploitation offenses.
On February 10, 2024, the Winchester Police Department began an investigation into suspected child sexual exploitative material in the Lynnville area. The case was referred to the Giles County Sheriff’s Office, which executed a search warrant at White’s residence. Investigators discovered more than 700 images and videos of child sexual exploitative material and determined that White had also distributed material over the internet.

The Sheriff’s Office acknowledged the assistance of the Winchester Police Department, the Williamson County Sheriff’s Office, and Homeland Security Investigations in the investigation. Officials also emphasized that community awareness and cooperation are essential in preventing child exploitation and ensuring offenders are held accountable
