New Orleans Man Pleads Guilty to Receiving Child Pornography
A 48-year-old New Orleans resident has pleaded guilty to receiving child pornography, announced United States Attorney Dana J. Boente.
Myles Fitzgerald Guidry, a resident of New Orleans, Louisiana, pled guilty to one-count of receipt of child pornography before the U.S. District Court Judge Nanette Jolivette Brown.
According to court documents, Guidry downloaded images and videos depicting the sexual exploitation of children by receiving the images from other individuals with whom he communicated via the Internet.
A search warrant executed by Special Agents with the Federal Bureau of Investigation recovered one computer containing images and videos of child pornography. Guidry used an Internet-based, real-time video chat program to communicate with multiple individuals, requesting images and videos depicting the sexual victimization of children during the course of a chat session.
Guidry faces a maximum penalty of twenty years imprisonment, followed by up to a life term of supervised release, and a $250,000 fine. He may also be required to register as a sex offender. Sentencing is currently scheduled for April 18, 2013.
The 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.
This case is being investigated by Special Agents from the Federal Bureau of Investigation. The prosecution of this case is being handled by Assistant United States Attorney Jordan Ginsberg.
