Chris Ragano made a “guilty best interest plea” or what’s commonly called an “Alford plea” — legally saying a guilty plea is in your best interest while also maintaining that you’re innocent of the charges.
MIAMI — A Tampa attorney who was sentenced to eight years of sex offender probation and no prison time after pleading guilty to 34 counts of child pornography charges still will not “acknowledge the wrongful nature of his conduct,” a Florida judge said.
Hillsborough County Circuit Court Judge Lyann Goudie sentenced Ragano after a plea agreement had been reached by the State Attorney’s Office for Hillsborough County’s Brooke Padgett and Ragano’s attorney, Bryant Camareno. Officially, adjudication is withheld on all charges , andon the possession charges and five years probation on the transmission charge, to be served at the same time.
The plea bargain and sentence handled the criminal side of things. Ragano is on sexual offender probation until Dec. 13, 2029. Ragano got caught only “because he clicked the wrong button. meant to save the images to his own computer only, but accidentally pressed a button which saved them to Microsoft, resulting in the discovery of his misconduct.”
