LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — A Las Vegas man was sentenced to over 16 years in jail for the sexual exploitation of a teen that he met via a web-based chat platform, in line with the U.S. Division of Justice.
On Tuesday, United States District Choose Jennifer A. Dorsey sentenced Kenton Hardy King, 29, to 16 years and eight months in jail adopted by 10 years of supervised launch for coercion and enticement, little one exploitation, and possession of kid sexual abuse materials (CSAM), in line with the U.S. DOJ.
In June 2020, King coerced and enticed a 15-year-old little one whom he met via Omegle, a web-based chat platform, to interact in sexual exercise with him and to interact in sexually specific conduct to make sexually specific materials, in line with courtroom paperwork.
King possessed CSAM on two of his cell telephones and threatened to ship photographs and video of the 15-year-old sufferer to the sufferer’s household, associates, and schoolmates, courtroom paperwork stated.
In June 2024 a jury discovered King responsible of coercion and enticement, sexual exploitation of kids, and possession of kid pornography.
