A Virginia Democratic operative is accused of distributing child pornography.

Randon Alexander Sprinkle, 30, allegedly engaged in conversations with an undercover FBI agent in May of this year through the Jack'd app under the name "Randy."

The 9-page affidavit states that Sprinkle asked the agent to move their conversation to Telegram, where he allegedly wrote "mostly into young, rape, incest - you?"

The arrest has prompted swift condemnation from elected officals who worked with Sprinkle in various capacities.

Richmond City Council Vice President Katherine Jordan said Sprinkle served as her 2024 campaign treasurer, handling campaign forms, events and financial reporting.

"What has been alleged is disgusting and abhorrent," Jordan said in a statement. "I'm shocked and sickened."
