Actor Mark Salling has pleaded guilty to possessing child pornography.
US media reports that, as part of a plea agreement, Salling admitted to owning around 50,000 images and 600 videos of children being sexually abused.
Salling’s collection of child pornography was discovered on a laptop, a hard drive and a USB after the actor showed some of the images to a girlfriend, who then reported him to police.
In a statement to People, Salling’s attorney Michael Proctor said “Mark is focused on accepting responsibility and attempting to atone for his conduct”.
