York County Man Sentenced To Seven Years’ Imprisonment For Child Pornography Offenses


HARRISBURG - The United States Attorney’s Office for the Middle District of Pennsylvania announced today that Robert E. Miller, III, age 34, of York County, Pennsylvania, was sentenced on May 23, 2018, by United States District Court Judge John E. Jones, III, to 84 months’ imprisonment, 10 years’ supervised release and to pay a $5,200 special assessment, for being in the possession of images depicting the sexual exploitation of children and receipt of obscene visual representations depicting the sexual abuse of children.

According to United States Attorney David J. Freed, Miller was convicted on December 6, 2017, following a three-day trial. The case originated when the FBI Major Case Coordination Unit sent a lead to the FBI Harrisburg office regarding a user browsing a known child pornography website. After obtaining a search warrant, federal and local law enforcement officers located hundreds of images and videos containing child pornography and obscene material depicting the sexual abuse of children, including violent rape, sodomy, bondage and forcible penetration with an object.

This case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Northern York County Regional Police Department.  Assistant United States Attorneys Daryl Bloom and Carlo Marchioli prosecuted the case.
