NORTHAMPTON COUNTY, Pa. – A Northampton man has been sentenced to 50 years in prison for manufacturing child pornography on multiple occasions over a period of about nine years, U.S. Attorney David Metcalf announced.
Efrain Baez-Feliciano, 38, was sentenced Wednesday to 50 years in prison, a lifetime supervised release, and various financial penalties, including $98,500 in restitution to victims, Metcalf says.
According to the attorney’s office, the defendant is also subject to mandatory registration as a sex offender under the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act and Megan’s Law.
Attorney Metcalf says the man was charged by indictment in October of last year.
In June, Baez-Feliciano pleaded guilty to 22 counts of production of child pornography and one count of possession of child pornography.
The attorney’s office says this case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice.
