SACRAMENTO, Calif. — Nathan Alexander Drury, 39, of Chico,
was sentenced today by Senior U.S. District Judge Garland E. Burrell Jr. to 15
years in prison for production of child pornography, U.S. Attorney McGregor W.
Scott announced.
According to court documents, between January 1, 2012, and
December 1, 2014, Drury filmed images of a child engaged in sexually explicit
conduct, including a 47-second video of a nude child who was under the age of
12. That video that Drury produced shows Drury sexually abusing the child.
“Homeland Security Investigations will do whatever it takes
to investigate these people who are a scourge to society and prey on innocent
children,” said Ryan L. Spradlin, Special Agent in Charge for HSI in Northern
California and Northern Nevada. “This type of crime is way too prevalent; but
let this serve as a warning for any of those engaged in this illicit and
egregious activity – the investigators of the federal government will hold you responsible
for your actions.”
This case was the product of an investigation by the U.S.
Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations
(HSI), the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Chico Police Department.
Assistant U.S. Attorney Brian A. Fogerty prosecuted the case.
