Christopher Colby Ingram, in custody, pleaded guilty pursuant to Alford to amended charges of Possession of Visual Pornography of a Person Under the Age of 16 (involving a juvenile male) and Felony of Possession of Visual Pornography of a Person Under the Age of 16 (juvenile female). Both are Category D felonies, each with potential penalties of 1-6 years in prison and fines of up to $5,000. Additional penalties include registration as a sex offender and lifetime supervision by the Division of Parole and Probation.

Ingramโ€™s plea was made per Alford, (North Carolina v. Alford (1970), in which he accepts the full ramifications of a guilty verdict and the prescribed penalties without admitting to committing the crime. 

The District Attorneyโ€™s Office stated they would be able to prove that Ingram used a spy cam to capture the image of a juvenile male masturbating and placed a video camera in a bathroom capturing an image of the naked body of a juvenile female. Judge Stockard ordered a Pre-Sentencing Investigation, as well as a Psychosexual Evaluation. Sentencing is set for November 12.โ€ฏ

We reached out to the writer/submitter and got this info back...hope it's helpful. PBM: Pharmacy Benefit Managers are pharmacies that are owned by insurance companies. (CVS is one.) They negotiate with drug makers to get reduced pricing for medications, but they historically have not passed along those savings to patients. https://www.ftc.gov/system/files/ftc_gov/pdf/pharmacy-benefit-managers-staff-report.pdf MFN: Most Favored Nation pricing is a policy that means a country agrees to offer the same trade concessions (like tariffs or price reductions) to all member nations of the World Trade Organization (WTO). When applied to pharmaceuticals, it could disrupt global access, deter innovation, and obscure the deeper systemic issues in American health care. https://petrieflom.law.harvard.edu/2025/05/22/the-global-risks-of-americas-most-favored-nation-drug-pricing-policy/Comment publication date: 6/23/25, 7:47 AMComment source: L E T T E R TO THE EDITOR
