A Pennsylvania woman, Jamie Greer Spies, 24, from Reading, was sentenced to 90 months in federal prison for distributing child sexual abuse material. The sentencing took place in U.S. District Court, where Judge Timothy J. Kelly also ordered Spies to serve ten years of supervised release and register as a sex offender.
Spies had pleaded guilty on July 22, 2025, to one count of distribution of child pornography. According to court documents, she used the online alias “babygirl484” in a group monitored by law enforcement that discussed and traded illegal images and videos involving minors. An undercover officer with the MPD-FBI Child Exploitation and Human Trafficking Task Force engaged with Spies after she expressed interest in material depicting the sexual abuse of young children.
Authorities stated that Spies was the mother of a then 16-month-old son at the time she distributed multiple images and videos showing the abuse of children, including infants and toddlers. Following her arrest on May 2, 2025, investigators found 43 videos and 51 images of child sexual abuse material on her phone.
U.S. Attorney Jeanine Ferris Pirro announced the sentence alongside FBI Assistant Director in Charge Darren B. Cox from the Washington Field Office and Interim Chief Jeffery Carroll of the Metropolitan Police Department.
The investigation was conducted by the MPD-FBI Child Exploitation and Human Trafficking Task Force with support from the FBI’s Philadelphia Field Office and Allentown Resident Agency. Assistant U.S. Attorney Karen Shinskie prosecuted the case.
The prosecution was part of Project Safe Childhood, an initiative started by the Department of Justice in February 2006 aimed at protecting children from online exploitation by coordinating resources across federal, state, and local agencies to locate offenders and rescue victims.
