Amsterdam Man Admits to Child Porn Charges
Cameron Hennelly, a 30-year-old Amsterdam man, has admitted to distributing and possessing child pornography. Hennelly sent a graphic image file of child pornography to another individual using a social media application on his phone.
According to the FBI, a subsequent search of Hennelly’s phone revealed that he was also in possession of images and video files depicting child pornography. This disturbing discovery was made possible by the efforts of the FBI’s Child Exploitation Task Force, which includes members of federal, state and local law enforcement agencies.
Hennelly’s guilty plea comes as a result of an investigation led by the FBI and its Child Exploitation Task Force. The case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Rachel Williams as part of Project Safe Childhood, a federal initiative aimed at combating child exploitation and promoting child safety.
Under the terms of his guilty plea, Hennelly faces a minimum of 5 years and up to 20 years in prison. He will also be required to register as a sex offender upon his release from prison. Hennelly’s sentence will be determined by Chief United States District Judge Glenn T. Suddaby on December 9, 2021.
Project Safe Childhood is a national initiative that marshals federal, state and local resources to locate, apprehend and prosecute individuals who exploit children via the internet, and to identify and rescue victims.

Cameron Hennelly’s guilty plea is a significant victory for law enforcement and a testament to the dedication of those working to keep our communities safe. His admission of guilt will undoubtedly bring closure to the victims of his crimes and serve as a warning to others who would seek to exploit children for their own twisted desires.
