Recent research conducted by the Federal Bureau of Prisons indicates a strong correlation between possessing or distributing child pornography, and committing sexual-contact crimes against children.
“I can’t give back the innocence you have stolen from these victims”Brian Lee Pfeiffer is also sentenced to three years of supervised release. Pfeiffer was indicted in July 2007, and pleaded guilty in November to one count of production of child pornography.
United States District Court Judge Donovan told Pfeiffer, “I can’t give back the innocence you have stolen from these victims,” when sentencing him. He rejected Pfeiffer’s claim that he had committed this crime as a result of stressful circumstances in his life.
According to the plea agreement, Pfeiffer possessed four videotapes of two girls between the ages of 7 and 9. In the videos, the girls were separately engaged in sexually explicit conduct. Pfeiffer produced these images in 2002 and 2003 when the girls were sleeping over at the defendant’s residence.
