Police: Sex offender found with child porn, questionable texts messages

When Andrew Potts was rushed to the hospital on Monday, a nephew he lived with went through his phone and discovered loads of child porn and what appeared to be sexually explicit text messages with adolescent girls, police said.

Potts' nephew was especially concerned, police said, because his 45-year-old uncle is already a registered sex offender, convicted in 2001 for having unlawful contact with a child in another state. So the nephew called the cops.

Potts is back in jail, charged with possessing child porn while police try to determine whether the recipients of his texts were indeed underage girls, police said. He is in Bucks County prison in lieu of $250,000 bail.
