New Iberia Man Pleads Guilty to Child Pornography Charges
LAFAYETTE, La. – In a disturbing case of child exploitation, a New Iberia man has pleaded guilty to producing child pornography, a crime that carries severe penalties.
Raymond F. Doyle III, 40, of New Iberia, La., entered a guilty plea before U.S. District Judge Richard T. Haik for one count of producing child pornography. According to evidence presented at the guilty plea, Doyle began communicating with numerous boys in the summer of 2011 using the internet and the video streaming internet service Skype.
One of the boys was age 14 and from Oklahoma. Doyle caused the minor to engage in sex acts while being videoed using Skype. Doyle also sent the minor a sex toy to use during the video sessions. United States Postal Service agents determined Doyle’s location on April 12, 2012 by examining information related to the sex toy’s shipment.
A search of Doyle’s home computer revealed evidence that Doyle had contact with more than 60 boys. In most cases, Doyle pretended to be a female in order to encourage the boys to communicate with him.
Doyle faces mandatory 30 years in prison, lifetime of supervised release, and a $250,000 fine. He is also required to register as a sex offender. A sentencing date was not set.
The U.S. Postal Service and Homeland Security Investigations investigated the case. Assistant U.S. Attorney John Luke Walker is prosecuting the case.
This case is part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse. The public is encouraged to report suspected child predators and any suspicious activity through its toll-free hotline at (866) DHS-2ICE. Investigators are available at all hours to answer hotline calls.
