EXPLOITED TODDLERS FOR SEXUAL GRATIFICATION
MA (55) of Burr Ridge, Illinois, was sentenced in late February to 10 years in federal prison for having more than 3,000 sexually explicit images and videos which depicted minors being abused.
Apparently, MA had thousands of files with featured the “sexual exploitation of toddlers.”
In addition to his prison term, MA was ordered to pay $7,000 in restitution to four victims.
In the government’s sentencing memorandum, Assistant U.S. Attorney Anne L. Yonover noted that, “Defendant was not a passive participant in a victimless crime; rather, he directly contributed to both the victimization of children and demand for further material …. Defendant perpetuated the victims’ abuse and helped to preserve a permanent record of those images and videos.”
Now how’s that for a disgusting image?
