James Phillip ‘Phil’ Edwards accused of drugging children, producing child porn

James Phillip “Phil” Edwards was indicted — for a second time — yesterday for allegedly drugging several children with soda and ice cream laced with sleeping pills to make child pornography.
The feds allege that the 60-year-old Edwards used 13 children in his videos between July 21, 2001, and June 23, 2005.
The 21-count indictment was issued by a federal grand jury and replaces the one issued in October 2009. Five counts of the indictment allege Edwards drugged children with
Ambien, a sleep medication, by slipping it in soda and ice cream.
Prosecutors allege that once the children were unconscious, Edwards
would sexually abuse them and record the abuse.
