Jason R. Moore, Child Sex Crimes, Florida 2023

PENSACOLA, FLORIDA - Jason R. Moore, 43, of Milton, Florida, was sentenced to sixty years in federal prison after previously pleading guilty to two counts of 'Illicit Sexual Conduct in Foreign Places.'

The crimes were committed from March 2013 through February 2016 in the Republic of Fiji.

Moore was arrested by Special Agents from the Department of Homeland Security and the Florida Department of Law Enforcement in Santa Rosa County in late 2022 after victims of Moore's crimes came forward regarding their sexual abuse.

Moore's prison sentence will be followed by a Lifetime of supervised release. He will also be required to register as a sex offender and be subject to all sex offender conditions.

'Individuals who masquerade under a disguise of public trust and prey on the vulnerability of children in their own home should expect to be held fully accountable for their actions,' said HSI Tallahassee Assistant Special Agent in Charge Nicholas Ingegno.

This case resulted from a joint investigation by the Department of Homeland Security, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, and the New York State Police.

Moore, who had previously served as a preacher, had access to children in a role that placed him in a position of trust for parents and the community.

Assistant United States Attorney David L. Goldberg and Trial Attorney Adam Braskich of the Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section prosecuted the case.

The United States Attorney's Office for the Northern District of Florida is one of 94 offices that serve as the nation's principal litigators under the direction of the Attorney General.

Moore's case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse.
