A Marstons Mills man has been sentenced for his role in distributing, receiving and possessing child pornography in Massachusetts.
Steven Carme, 33, was sentenced to 63 months in prison and five years of supervised release by U.S. District Court Judge Richard G. Stearns on charges of distributing, receiving and possessing child pornography.
Carme pleaded guilty to one count of distribution of child pornography, one count of receipt of child pornography and one count of possession of child pornography involving a prepubescent minor and a minor who had not attained 12 years of age.
The charges against Carme stem from a two-year period between Feb. 2, 2017 and Feb. 5, 2019, during which he downloaded and distributed numerous image and video files depicting child pornography via peer-to-peer file sharing software.
Forensic review of an external hard drive seized from Carme’s residence revealed approximately 7,881 images and 616 videos of child pornography.
Carme admitted to downloading, storing and distributing child pornography during an onsite interview at his residence.
The case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative designed to protect children from exploitation and abuse.
United States Attorney Rachael S. Rollins, Joseph R. Bonavolonta, Special Agent in Charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Boston Division, and Barnstable Police Chief Matthew Sonnabend made the announcement today.
