PHILADELPHIA – U.S. Attorney William M. McSwain announced
that Cameron Carlucci, 27, of Philadelphia was sentenced by the Honorable Berle
M. Schiller to 151 months in federal prison, followed by 10 years supervised
release. Carlucci was convicted of
distributing and possessing child pornography from 2016 through his arrest in
2018. During that time, he amassed more
than 56,000 images and videos that depicted mostly prepubescent boys, infants,
and toddlers being sexually abused and exploited.
At the time that Carlucci distributed these images and
videos over the Internet, he had already been convicted in Philadelphia in 2011
for possession of obscene and other sexual materials, for which he received a
5-year probationary sentence. Almost
immediately after the termination of his probation, Carlucci began committing
the sexual crimes against children in this case. At the same time that he was committing these
crimes, Carlucci sought out and obtained employment at Valley Pediatrics in
Warminster, PA as a medical technician.
To obtain his employment with Valley Pediatrics, Carlucci falsified his
application by denying his criminal history.
“Not only did this defendant commit the heinous crime of
possessing and distributing child pornography, he lied to get a job that would put
him in close proximity to children,” said U.S. Attorney McSwain. “Parents and caregivers bring their children
to doctors’ offices with the expectation that they will be safe and cared for,
not in the presence of a known sexual predator.
We thank the judge in this case for ensuring that Carlucci will be
behind bars and unable to be in contact with children for a very long time.”
The case was investigated by the FBI and is being prosecuted
by Assistant United States Attorney Michelle Rotella.
