Timothy Beaver, Child Pornography, Florida 2014

Orlando, FL – In a disturbing case of child exploitation, Timothy Beaver, a 49-year-old resident of Orlando, Florida, has been sentenced to 6 years and 6 months in federal prison for receiving child pornography.

According to court documents, Beaver used a file-sharing program and the Internet to download approximately 14,500 images and 300 videos depicting the sexual abuse and exploitation of mostly prepubescent boys over a period of at least seven years. Additionally, Beaver purchased DVD recordings of child pornography from a Canadian website that was subsequently seized by law enforcement authorities.

This egregious offense was investigated by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI). The case is being prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Karen L. Gable.

It is worth noting that 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. Led by the United States Attorneys’ Offices and the Criminal Division’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section (CEOS), Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who sexually exploit children, and to identify and rescue victims.

Beaver pleaded guilty to the charges on March 5, 2014. As a result of his conviction, he has been ordered to pay a $25,000 fine and forfeit the computer equipment used to commit the offense. Following his release from prison, Beaver will be required to serve a life term of supervised release.

The case highlights the need for continued vigilance in combating the heinous crime of child pornography. The federal government’s efforts to prosecute those who engage in such activities are crucial in protecting the well-being of our children.
