Charleroi: denounced by the USA, it disseminated child pornography

He pretended to be a minor

In May 2019, Gianni was reported by US authorities. The latter, via his IP address, had just broadcast child pornography images and videos on the net. The investigative duties were subsequently launched. In particular, there was the seizure of computer equipment and a search carried out at the defendant’s home. ” There were 525 files discovered. Internet research shows that he was very active. He is also a member of a Facebook group of users who exchanged child pornography files. “, summarizes the substitute Foot.

Besides holding and distributing files, Gianni has also taken another level by tracking minors on the net. The defendant was looking for naked images provided by young girls and pretended to be a minor to achieve his ends. ” Yes, it is a predator. It is clearly beyond a virtual addiction because he came into contact with minors “, says the prosecution.

Faced with these actions, the substitute Pied believes that a probationary sentence must necessarily be put in place with a sentence of 4 years in prison. Me Charles, for the defense, goes in the same direction by pleading a probationary stay while insisting on a reduction of the prison sentence.

Judgment on June 13.
