Covington in jail on 40 child porn charges

BLOOMINGTON — A Bloomington man is facing pending charges relating to charges on child pornography. 51-year-old Dennis L. Covington is facing charges of 40 counts of child pornography. All but nine of those charges are Class 2 felonies, while the remaining nine have a Class 3 felony designation.

The charges stem from alleged offenses occurring in February and March of 2020. An August 2021 indictment charged him with possession of pornographic images of at least one child. At least one of those children was under the age of 13.

Illinois Department of Corrections records show that Covington was just released on parole Monday. He was just over three years into a six-year sentence at Hill Correctional Center in Galesburg. He was jailed in 2020 on charges of falsifying information to parole as it relates to sex offender reporting.

Prior to his arrest, Covington had not previously been in the custody of the McLean County Sheriff’s Department due to being in IDOC custody.

He was jailed in lieu of posting bail amounting to $25,035, and his arraignment is scheduled for June 2.
