Shorewood piano tuner James Severson testified he had no idea there was child pornography on his computer, but the jury apparently didn't like the sound of that song.

It only took about an hour for the jury to come back with a guilty verdict Wednesday evening following Severson's three-day trial in Will County court.

Severson's sentencing was set for April 4. He faces two to five years in prison and must register as a sex offender for 10 years.

The law learned of Severson's kiddie porn collection after his wife, Margaret DeLeon, sought a court order in Jan. 2008 to keep him away from her and her teenage daughter.

"My husband has purchased 14 child pornography videos from a website that he has to download to view," DeLeon wrote in her petition for the order. "This website contains child pornography and I feel that if he finds out that I know about this website he could become violent with me or my daughter, who is 14.

"He is a former Marine and in the past has stated 'he knows how to kill people,'" DeLeon wrote in the petition that she obtained while Severson was living with her and her child in their home on Mazalin Drive.

Four months after DeLeon claimed under oath that the allegedly deadly Severson had bought videos of child pornography, the Shorewood police took the self-employed piano tuner into custody. But Severson avoided a trip to the county jail by posting $4,000 bond for his release and remained free for the near four years between his arrest and the this week's trial.

That bond was revoked after the guilty verdict came back and Severson will remain jailed until his sentencing.
