Canton Man Sentenced for Receiving Child Pornography

Marc D. Earlenbaugh was sentenced to 30 years in prison for crimes related to child pornography, Steven M. Dettelbach, United States Attorney for the Northern District of Ohio, announced today.

Earlenbaugh age 44, of Canton, Ohio, pleaded guilty earlier this year to one count of receiving child pornography.

Between September 26, 2010, through on or about October 8, 2010, Earlenbaugh knowingly received computer image and video files, which files contained visual depictions of real minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct. Additionally, Earlenbaugh possessed a computer containing child pornography on October 20, 2010, according to court documents.

This case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Michael A. Sullivan. The case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Stark County Sheriff’s Department and the Ohio Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force.
