TAMPA -- A Venice man has been convicted of multiple charges related to child sex tourism, prosecutors report.

According to a news release from the Department of Justice, a federal jury found David Paul Lynch, 56, guilty of multiple charges of child pornography and traveling with the intent to engage in illicit sexual conduct. He faces decades in prison when he is sentenced in January 2018.

According to acting U.S. Attorney W. Stephen Muldrow, Lynch regularly traveled to the Philippines between 2005 and 2016 to have sex with children and make recordings of the abuse. Before his trips he communicated online with people in the Philippines to locate children to abuse. Lynch produced child pornography of at least three children on these visits and solicited child pornography via email of a fourth. He was arrested in San Francisco while trying to board a flight to the Philippines on Dec. 30, 2016.

A search of his Venice home found dozens of self-produced images and videos of child pornography from his trips.
