Baton Rouge Man Sentenced for Distributing Child Pornography
Brad J. Case, age 30, of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, has been sentenced to 96 months in prison, followed by 20 years of supervised release, for his role in distributing child pornography. This crime is a serious offense that affects the lives of countless individuals, and we must hold perpetrators accountable for their actions.
On May 8, 2011, Case distributed 25 images of child pornography to an undercover Special Agent with the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) through the internet using a peer-to-peer file sharing program. The FBI was able to trace the source of the child pornography to an apartment located in Baton Rouge and rented by Case.
On October 12, 2011, the FBI executed a search warrant at Case’s apartment and seized, among other things, a computer belonging to Case. A forensic examination of Case’s computer revealed several hundred images and numerous videos depicting child pornography.
This case was investigated by the United States Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Louisiana and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The matter was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Chris Dippel.
Case had previously pled guilty to one count of distribution of child pornography, and this sentence reflects the severity of the crime. We urge anyone with information about similar crimes to come forward and assist us in bringing perpetrators to justice.
The case serves as a reminder of the importance of online safety and the need for individuals to be vigilant in reporting suspicious activity. We will continue to work tirelessly to protect our communities and bring those responsible for these heinous crimes to justice.
