BALTIMORE (AP) — A federal program that identifies alleged child molesters by publicizing their photographs has led to a life sentence for a five-time sex offender.
James A. Reigle Jr., 46, was convicted in Baltimore federal court in October and sentenced Friday for sexually exploiting minors to produce child pornography, conspiracy to transport child pornography and shipping child pornography.
"As far as we know, this is in fact the first life sentence imposed for a child pornography offense," U.S. Attorney Rod Rosenstein said.
