Danny Heinrich, 53, of Annandale, made the admission as he pleaded guilty to a federal child pornography charge that will likely keep him locked up for 20 years, with civil commitment possible after that, meaning he could spend the rest of his life in custody.
Asked whether he abducted, sexually assaulted and murdered Jacob, Heinrich said: "Yes, I did."
As part of the plea agreement, Heinrich will not face state murder charges in Jacob's death. U.S. Attorney Andy Luger said it was the only way to get Heinrich, whom he described as a volatile man, to show authorities where they could find the boy's remains.

So, now if a child molester and murder wont face justice for the horrific crimes he committed because he showed Law Enforcement where the body is?!?!?!?!?!?
They said they are charging him with child porn (That they found on his computer while searching his house looking for evidence linking him to Wetterling) which carries up to 20 years in Prison. Still to lenient.
They have also linked him to the kidnapping and molestation of another child prior Wetterling case, which it looks like he wont face charges for either.
This creep is a habitual sex offender and I am sure if they trace it back that they will find more victims. Guys like this cant just stop.
I am disgusted at the District Attorney's Office for letting this slide! That District Attorney needs to be recalled from office!
