ATHENS, Texas — An Athens man accused of sexually assaulting children and showing them pornographic videos was arrested this week. 

Jordan Lee Smith, 18, is charged with indecency with a child, solicitation of prostitution of a person under 18 years old, sale or distribution of harmful material to a minor and two counts of aggravated sexual assault of a child.
