Jurors Cringe Watching Evidence In Child Porn Trial

EL PASO, Texas —

In day three of the Hector Torres trial, jurors cringed as they watched nearly two hours of child pornography.

It's a legal requirement to show the jury the evidence submitted, but many jurors had to look away at times. In some of the videos, children could be heard crying loudly in pain. One juror put her head down and stopped watching completely.

The evidence included 13 videos and 12 images found in an SD card, zip drive, DVD, laptop and work computer, all of which investigators believe belonged to Torres.

But the defense is contending the child porn was planted by Torres' estranged wife to set him up.

The trial will continue on Monday in the 409th District Court.
