A Collinsville man pleaded guilty in federal court on Monday to having, distributing, and receiving nearly two million pictures and videos of child porn.

Documents show Chance Daykin chatted online about buying, raping, and killing children and tried to locate parents who would let him use their pre-teen children. Rogers County investigators got a tip last fall, about child porn being uploaded to Dropbox. That led them to Daykin, who was living with his parents and grandparents.

Documents say Daykin admitted to having a child porn addiction. Documents show Daykin had nearly two million images and videos of child porn. Documents show the images and videos showed children from infants to 12 years old.

Documents show there were messages where Daykin bragged about getting a nine-year-old girl to send him nude photos.

Acting US Attorney Clint Johnson says this case is disturbing.

"I think these are some of the most horrendous cases out there. For just what we talked about earlier. It preys on the most vulnerable. These children are getting sexually exploited," said Johnson.

As part of Daykin’s guilty plea, he faces 15 years in prison, won’t be allowed parole, and will be on supervised release for the rest of his life. He will be officially sentenced in August.
