U.S. Attorney Duane A. Evans announced that TIM NALL, age 62, of New Orleans, was sentenced today to sixty (60) months in prison by United States District Judge Carl J. Barbier after previously pleading guilty to receiving images and videos depicting the sexual exploitation of children. In addition to his term of imprisonment, NALL will also have to pay restitution in the amount of $5,000 to victims, and register as sex offender.
According to court documents, law enforcement officials executed a search warrant at NALL’S residence on July 25, 2017, during which time they seized numerous electronic items including one desktop computer and numerous loose storage media, such as CDs and DVDs that contained images and videos depicting the sexual victimization of children. A forensic examination of the device revealed that NALL used the devices to search for, download, and save images and videos of children younger than two (2) years old engaging in sexually explicit conduct. The forensic examination located approximately 2,080 images and 2 videos of prepubescent children engaging in sexually explicit on NALL’S digital devices.
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. Led by United States Attorneys= Offices and the Criminal Division's Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section (CEOS), Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state and local resources to better locate, apprehend and prosecute individuals who exploit children via the Internet, as well as to identify and rescue victims.
