Child porn case: Milwaukee man sentenced to ten years in prison

MILWAUKEE -- A Milwaukee man was sentenced on Friday, August 14th to 10 years in prison for receiving more than one million images of child pornography.

48-year-old Jeffrey Feldman of Milwaukee pleaded guilty in April 2015 to one count of receipt of child pornography.

According both to admissions made in connection with his guilty plea and to information introduced at sentencing, in January 2013, FBI special agents detected Feldman sharing files containing child pornography over the Internet via a peer-2-peer network. During a subsequent search of Feldman’s residence, agents recovered numerous encrypted computers and electronic storage devices. And forensic analyses of those devices revealed that Feldman had received over one million files that included child pornography images and videos.

This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice.
