A Roseville doctor has been sentenced to 9 years in prison for distributing child sexual abuse material.
Khursheed Haider, 50, was sentenced on today by U.S. District Judge Dena M. Coggins for distribution of child sexual abuse material, announced U.S. Attorney Eric Grant.
“Today’s sentence holds Khursheed Haider accountable for his proliferation of child sexual abuse material, each instance of which retraumatizes the victims shown in such material,” said U.S. Attorney Grant.
“Khursheed Haider was known to many as a trusted physician and family man,” said FBI Sacramento Special Agent in Charge Sid Patel. “However, he was a predator behind that facade who actively shared material depicting the horrific sexual abuse of infants and toddlers.
According to court documents, Haider, a Sacramento Area pulmonologist, used an application called Wire to post, distribute, and request videos and images of prepubescent boys and girls being sexually abused.
More than 600 images and videos of prepubescent child sexual abuse material were discovered on Haider’s electronic devices after a search warrant was executed.
This case was the product of an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Assistant U.S. Attorney Jason Hitt prosecuted the case.
This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched in May 2006 to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse.
