Actor denies child porn charges

Actor Jeffrey Jones, who played the dean in 'Ferris Bueller's Day Off', has pleaded innocent to charges that he possessed child pornography and hired a 14-year-old boy to pose for sexually explicit photos.

The 56-year-old actor , who also appeared in the films 'Beetlejuice' and 'Sleepy Hollow', faces up to three years in prison if convicted. He would also have to register as a sex offender.

Jones has previously said he wants "the truth to come out" about the criminal charges.

Speaking after his first court appearance in November he said, "from the beginning, I have co-operated with the police department and the district attorney's office."

He remains free on $20,000 bond and is expected back in court on 3 February.
