July 25, 2017 |
Thurlo Eugene Clark, 72, Bonners Ferry, was
sentenced today in federal court in Coeur
d’Alene to 60 months in prison for possession of
sexually explicit images of minors, Acting U.S.
Attorney Rafael Gonzalez announced.
Senior U.S. District Court Judge Edward J. Lodge
also ordered a ten-year term of supervised
release following Clark’s release from prison.
According to the plea agreement, Clark admitted
that on May 6, 2016, law enforcement officers
contacted him because officers received
information that Clark tried to send child
pornography via the internet. Clark admitted to
law enforcement that he knowingly possessed
child pornography which he had received by
email.
With Clark’s consent, law enforcement officers
recovered various computer equipment that
contained child pornography. At the time law
enforcement contacted Clark, he possessed some
21,000 images of child pornography.
The case was investigated by the FBI and the
Idaho Internet Crimes Against Children Task
Force. |
