Bradley Edward Corley, Child Sexual Abuse Material Possession, Louisiana 2020

A Marrero man has been sentenced to 130 months imprisonment after pleading guilty to possession of child sexual abuse material.

Bradley Edward Corley, 46, a resident of Marrero, Louisiana, was sentenced by United States District Judge Jay C. Zainey after previously pleading guilty to Count Two of a two-count Indictment charging him with possession of images and videos depicting the sexual exploitation of children, including children as young as approximately four (4) years old, in violation of 18 U.S.C. 2252(a)(4)(B).

In 2006, Corley was convicted in the United States District Court for the Eastern District of Louisiana of possession of child pornography. This latest conviction stems from an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, which received a tip in about September 2019 that Corley had uploaded images depicting the sexual exploitation of children to a digital application and distribution platform designed for video gaming communities.

Agents executed a search warrant at Corley's residence in March 2020 and seized several electronic devices that contained files depicting the sexual victimization of children. A forensic examination of several of the devices confirmed that Corley had used them to search for, download, and save at least 60,000 images and 1,500 videos depicting the sexual victimization of children.

Corley's sentence also includes supervised release for the remainder of his life and a $100 special assessment fee. A restitution hearing in the matter is scheduled for August 16, 2021. The case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse.

U.S. Attorney Duane A. Evans praised the work of the Federal Bureau of Investigation in investigating this matter, with support from the Jefferson Parish Sheriff's Office. Assistant United States Attorney Jordan Ginsberg is in charge of the prosecution.
