   A Seattle man already facing federal child pornography charges   
   is now alleged to have been caught on tape sexually assaulting a   
   10-year-old girl.   
      
   Now charged with child rape in state court, Steven M. Williams   
   was already under indictment in U.S. District Court following   
   allegations that he was making child pornography in Pierce   
   County and elsewhere. Williams, a convicted felon purportedly   
   caught with two pistols, has also been charged with federal gun   
   offenses.   
      
   Williams, 43, is alleged to have abused the girl for years   
   before his August arrest on child pornography charges. Writing   
   the court, King County Senior Deputy Prosecutor Cecelia Gregson   
   described Williams as a “serious and imminent threat to the   
   safety” of children.   
      
   In mid-August, the girl’s mother went to Federal Way police to   
   report she’d found pornographic photos of a then-10-year-old   
   girl on a camera belonging to Williams, a Federal Way detective   
   told the court.   
      
   Investigators determined dozens of photos showing Williams   
   molesting the girl had been taken at a home, the detective told   
   the court. According to charging papers, Williams appeared to   
   sexually assault the girl while she was asleep.   
      
   Police subsequently searched a storage unit belonging to   
   Williams. Inside, they claim to have found two handguns, a photo   
   album and video tapes, as well as digital storage cards.   
      
   Interviewed by investigators following the search of his storage   
   unit, Williams declined to discuss the photos, a Secret Service   
   special agent told the court.   
      
   “I don’t want to talk about that without a lawyer,” Williams   
   said, according to charging papers, “but I have seen her a bunch   
   of times since those pictures and she is fine.”   
      
   The girl later told investigators Williams molested her nearly   
   every night for several years, the agent continued. She said she   
   pretended to sleep during the abuse.   
      
   Williams’ scarred hands are visible in several of the photos   
   showing him molest the girl, the agent told the court. A federal   
   grand jury in Seattle indicted Williams in September on two   
   child pornography counts, as well as a gun charge.   
      
   Speaking with police, Williams’ ex-girlfriend said she kicked   
   Williams out of her home after he “knocked up” a 12-year-old   
   girl, the detective said in charging papers. The woman said   
   Williams was dealing cocaine to children out of a Des Moines   
   apartment at the time, the detective continued, and took   
   sexually explicit photos of a teen girl while there.   
      
   State prosecutors have filed three counts of first-degree child   
   rape against Williams. He remains jailed without bail at the   
   Federal Detention Center in SeaTac; the state charges will   
   likely be addressed after the federal prosecution is completed.
