Portland Man Sentenced to 14½ Years in Prison for Possessing Child Pornography and Violating Release Conditions

The following press release was published by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of the United States Attorneys on Jan. 10, 2014. It is reproduced in full below.

Portland, Maine: United States Attorney Thomas E. Delahanty II announced that

Timothy Majeroni, 46, of Portland, was sentenced today in United States District Court by

Judge George Z. Singal to a total of 14½ years imprisonment, consisting of 12½ years

imprisonment for possessing child pornography and an additional 2 years imprisonment for

violating conditions of supervised release. Majeroni was also sentenced to a lifetime of

supervised release following his release from prison. Majeroni was convicted of possessing

child pornography after a two-day jury trial in September of last year, and Judge Singal found

after a hearing today that he had also violated conditions of release imposed as part of a prior

federal prosecution.

According to evidence introduced at trial, in November of 2012, Majeroni’s federal

probation officer discovered a laptop computer in his apartment. The laptop was later found to

contain numerous child pornography images. The evidence at trial also established that

Majeroni had pleaded guilty in 2001 to possession of child pornography. Court records also

show that Majeroni pleaded guilty in 2008 to failing to register as a sex offender, for which he

was still on supervised release at the time of his most recent offense.

The investigation was conducted by the United States Probation Office and the United

States Secret Service.
