ATLANTA - Two Georgia men have pleaded guilty to using the Internet to download and trade images of child pornography. <br>
<br>
Michal Frost of Duluth and Michael L. Kile of Bowdon, both 31, entered pleas Monday before separate judges on charges of receiving obscenity in interstate commerce by computer. <br>
<br>
U.S. Attorney William S. Duffey Junior said the two face sentences of up to five years in prison and $250,000. Kile will be sentenced August 29, and Frost on October tenth. <br>
<br>
Both were arrested as part of ``Operation Candyman,'' an FBI investigation to combat online child exploitation. <br>
<br>
The investigation was an effort to identify members of the ``Candyman'' Egroup, an organization of pornographers with an estimated seven-thousand members, including about 2,400 in other countries.
