Director Jason 'Jace' Alexander, who bags shows like 'Law and Order' to his credit, has pleaded guilty to the charges of child pornography.

The 51-year-old TV director, who is about to face the same legal proceedings that some of the fictional criminals on his show go through, was charged with promoting a sexual performance by a child and possessing an obscene performance by a child, reports Us Magazine.

Prosecutors say digital files showing minors engaged in sex acts were found on computers at the director's New York home.

According to Westchester County District Attorney Janet DiFiore, Jace can face up to seven years in prison when he is sentenced on May 3.

 

This TV director has directed more than a dozen episodes of 'Law & Order' since the mid-1990s. He also did work on 'The Blacklist' and 'Rescue Me'.
