ALBANY, NEW YORK – John D. Salisbury, age 49, of Hagaman, New
York, was sentenced today to 360 months in prison for producing and
transporting child pornography.
The announcement was made by United States Attorney Grant C.
Jaquith; Susan Ferensic, Acting Special Agent in Charge of the Albany Field
Office of the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI); and Keith M. Corlett,
Superintendent of the New York State Police (NYSP).
Senior United States District Judge Norman A. Mordue also
sentenced Salisbury to a lifetime term of supervised release, to begin
following his term of imprisonment.
Salisbury will also be required to register as a sex offender upon his
release from prison
Salisbury pled guilty on June 21, 2019, to four counts of
sexual exploitation of a child, and one count of transportation of child
pornography.
In connection with his guilty plea, Salisbury admitted that
on four occasions between October 2016 and February 2017, he used a hidden
camera inside the bathroom of his residence to produce sexually explicit videos
depicting a minor. Salisbury also admitted
that he knowingly uploaded photos and videos depicting child pornography from a
smartphone to an Internet-based email account.
In addition, the investigation determined that in November
2017, Salisbury exchanged text messages with an undercover investigator, in
which he repeatedly expressed sexual interest in a child under his care whom he
previously sexually exploited, and sent the investigator two photos of the
child, including a screenshot from one of the videos filmed in the bathroom of
his residence.
This case was investigated by the FBI and the New York State
Police, with assistance from the Colonie Police Department, and was prosecuted
by Assistant U.S. Attorney Emmet O’Hanlon.
