MUSKEGON COUNTY, Mich. — The Muskegon County Prosecutor’s Office says two men in prison are accused of writing and drawing their own child pornography without actually involving real children.

Christopher Czarnik, 43, and Guy Lendrum, 41, are already serving sentences related to criminal sexual conduct involving minors and possessing child pornography. Assistant Prosecutor Tim Maat says the two inmates are being charged after allegedly having sexually abusive drawings and writings of children.

Czarnik is being charged with creating sexually abusive material sometime between September 2014 and March 2015. He’s behind bars at the Muskegon Correctional Facility on several child porn convictions from 2011 and 2012. He’s being charged as a fourth time offender.

Lendrum is doing time at the West Shoreline Correctional Facility on 11 different counts of criminal sexual conduct involving someone under the age of 13, among other charges. Maat say he’s now being charged with possession of child pornography, also as a fourth time habitual offender.

No actual children were involved with these latest charges.
