Murdered Buckingham man accused of having child porn images

Published: Updated:

BUCKINGHAM, Fla. — A lawyer for a teen accused of murder claimed Wednesday that the victim had thousands of child porn images before his death.

Lavaya May, 16, is facing murder charges for the death of Ted Lee, 58. May convinced two friends — Jonatha Ruffini, 18, and Hunter Tyson, 23, — to kill Lee in July because May said he sexually abused her, according to a warrant.

The defense asked the state in court Wednesday to hand over more evidence, including Facebook messages Lee allegedly exchanged with young girls, that could help exonerate May and prove that Lee traumatized her.
