SF man found with child porn, drugs, guns gets 10 years in federal prison

(KRON) — A San Francisco man was sentenced Friday to 10 years in federal prison for possessing child sexual abuse materials, large quantities of drugs, and multiple firearms, federal prosecutors said.

Rodney Williams, 55, pleaded guilty in May to two counts of possession of child pornography, possession with intent to distribute methamphetamine and cocaine, and being a felon in possession of firearms and ammunition, according to the U.S. Attorney’s Office.

Prosecutors said a search of Williams’s Potrero Hill home and vehicle in July 2024 uncovered an iPhone containing hundreds of images and videos of child sexual abuse, including some involving minors under 12.

Investigators also found nearly 3.8 kilograms of methamphetamine, more than a kilogram of cocaine, heroin, fentanyl, 11 firearms, and over 116 pounds of ammunition.

Williams, who has prior felony convictions, was also ordered to serve five years of supervised release after his prison term and to pay $89,000 in restitution to victims. He was taken into custody immediately.
