June 29, 2010 - United States Attorney John E. Murphy announced that in San Antonio, 23-year-old Daryl Ray McNair, Jr., faces between five and 20 years in federal prison after a jury late yesterday convicted him of distribution, receipt, and possession of child pornography.
Evidence presented during trial revealed that on September 9, 2009, federal agents executed a search warrant at the defendant’s residence where they seized a computer and an external hard drive containing child pornography. A forensic analysis of the computer equipment revealed the presence of more than 7,000 images and 39 videos depicting child pornography. The investigation originated in 2008 when a federal agent in Miami, Florida, acting in an undercover capacity, accessed a secure online file sharing network which the defendant was using to distribute and receive child pornography. The federal agent downloaded numerous images of child pornography from the defendant’s shared folder. The case was transferred to San Antonio after further investigation revealed that the defendant lived in San Antonio.
Sentencing is scheduled for 1:30 p.m. on October 6, 2010, before United States District Judge Xavier Rodriguez.
This Project Safe Childhood case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Assistant United States Attorney Sarah Wannarka is prosecuting this case on behalf of the government.
