The following press release was published by the U.S. Department of Justice, Office of the United States Attorneys on Jan. 31, 2020. It is reproduced in full below.

ROCHESTER, N.Y. - U.S. Attorney James P. Kennedy, Jr. announced today that Sean Humby, 31, of Rochester, NY, who was convicted of possession of child pornography involving prepubescent minors, after having sustained a conviction for child sexual abuse, was sentenced to serve 10 years in prison, and 10 years of supervised release, by Chief U.S. District Judge Frank P. Geraci, Jr.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Kyle P. Rossi, who handled the case, stated that Humby was convicted of sexually abusing three minors in Monroe County in 2008, and sentenced to serve 108 months in prison. The defendant was released to parole supervision in 2016. On Aug. 24, 2018, while conducting a routine search of Humby’s residence, New York State Parole Officers discovered the defendant to be in possession of a cellular phone, in violation to his parole conditions. Humby was taken into custody and the phone was turned over to the FBI. A forensic analysis recovered images of child pornography on the phone.

The sentencing is the result of an investigation by members of New York State Parole, under the direction of Acting Commissioner Anthony J. Annucci; the Federal Bureau of Investigation Child Exploitation Task Force, under the direction of Special Agent-in-Charge Gary Loeffert; and the Monroe County Sheriff’s Office, under the direction of Sheriff Todd Baxter. #
