BUFFALO, N.Y. - U.S. Attorney James P. Kennedy, Jr.
announced today that Joseph Pachetti, 35, of Eustis, Florida, who was convicted
of transportation of obscene material in commerce, was sentenced to four years
probation, to include one year home detention, by U.S. District Judge Richard
J. Arcara.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Stephanie Lamarque, who handled the
case, stated that in November 2016, the defendant, living in Niagara Falls, NY,
distributed obscene images to an undercover FBI agent via a peer to peer
network. Investigators executed a search warrant at Pachetti’s apartment and seized
various electronics. Subsequent forensic examination revealed thousands of
images of child pornography and child erotica.
The sentencing is the result of an investigation by the
Federal Bureau of Investigation, Buffalo Division, under the direction of
Special Agent-in-Charge Gary Loeffert.
