Donald Brian Beauchaine, 40, a resident of Lake Waccamaw and former police officer in Fair Bluff, was sent to federal prison Tuesday for 180 months for one count of manufacturing child pornography.
Beauchaine was arrested by Lake Waccamaw police in June 2014 after he was caught secretly videotaping his girlfriend’s minor daughter while she in her bathroom. He admitted to videoing the girl beginning in April 2014 until he was caught.
An examination of Beauchaine’s cellphone and laptop computer showed they contained 12,000 images of child pornography, according to a federal court news release.
