PIKEVILLE, Ky. – A Wheelwright, Ky. man, David Glenn Boyd,
53, has been sentenced to 120 months in federal prison, to be followed by a
Life term of supervised release, for knowingly distributing child pornography.
Yesterday, Chief United States District Judge Karen K.
Caldwell formally sentenced Boyd, who must serve 85 percent of his federal
prison sentence.
Boyd previously admitted that, in August of 2016, he
knowingly distributed images of child pornography over the Internet. A forensic examination of Boyd’s laptop
computer revealed 42 still images and 35 videos of child pornography. The investigation was the result of a Cyber
Tipline report from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children
(NCMEC). As a result of the Cyber Tip,
the Kentucky State Police (KSP) conducted an investigation, which led them to
obtain a search warrant for Boyd’s
residence. During the execution
of that search warrant the KSP seized Boyd’s computer and other electronic
media.
Robert M. Duncan, Jr., United States Attorney for the
Eastern District of Kentucky; Amy Hess, Special Agent in Charge, Federal Bureau
of Investigation; and Rick Sanders, KSP Commissioner, jointly announced the
sentence.
The investigation was conducted by the FBI and KSP. The United States was represented by
Assistant United States Attorney David Marye.
