FARGO, N.D. — A Minnesota woman who was promised $100,000 from a North Dakota man in exchange for producing and providing child pornography has been convicted in federal court.

A jury found 35-year-old Roxanne Merrell, of Cottage Grove, Minnesota, guilty on two counts of production of child pornography.

Authorities say Merrell took the photos for Travis Guenthner, of Washburn, who pleaded guilty last year to seven counts of child porn and was sentenced to life in prison.

Merrell is the second woman to be convicted in the case. Michelle Laducer, of Rolla, was sentenced in 2013 to 30 years in prison for helping Guenthner produce photographs of one victim.

Guenthner allegedly told Laducer he would give her up to $200,000 for the illicit photos. Laducer was never paid.
