Winfree is accused of pleading no contest to using a website to create a fake listing that lured au pairs into his home, where he would sexually assault them.

A no contest plea is a defendant's admission that while they do not want to plead guilty, the prosecutor has sufficient evidence to convict them of the crimes.

He also pleaded no contest to two counts of producing child pornography after coercing two underage girls to send him sexual images via social media. Winfree also recorded himself sexually assaulting one of the underage victims.

Winfree faces a potential maximum sentence of life in prison.
