Former Outagamie County HR Director Convicted in Federal Child Pornography Case

MADISON (WLUK) — Former Outagamie County Human Resources Director Adam Westbrook has been convicted in federal court of producing child pornography. His sentencing is set for Dec. 5, court records show.

Westbook was scheduled to go to trial next week but entered a plea Monday, court documents show.

The conviction is punishable by a prison sentence of 5 to 20 years.

Westbrook was arrested after detectives discovered evidence that he collected and shared videos of a prepubescent boy at a Sauk County hotel in January.

The investigation into Westbrook began in March, following the arrest of Preston Kite. Kite, a Racine County sheriff’s deputy, was arrested in early February for indecent exposure after exposing himself to someone in a public restroom.

Kite faces charges of possession of child pornography, five counts of sexual exploitation of children, lewd and lascivious behavior, disorderly conduct and bestiality. A trial in that case is scheduled for January 14.

Westbrook resigned from Outagamie County after his arrest.
