Camilo Campos-Hurtado, a Mexican citizen who was living in Franklin, Tennessee, pleaded guilty in June to four counts of sexual exploitation of a minor, one count of receiving child sexual abuse material, one count of using or possessing fraudulent immigration documents, and one count of possessing a stolen or unlawfully produced identification document.
Federal prosecutors requested a 50-year sentence during the July 2 hearing.
"This criminal illegal alien pleaded guilty to sexually exploiting children and child pornography charges after he repeatedly drugged and assaulted children while he was working as a soccer coach," said Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Acting Assistant Secretary Lauren Bis. "If he is ever released, ICE will immediately remove him from the country. He will never again harm another child in our country."
The investigation into Campos-Hurtado began in 2023 when someone discovered explicit videos on a cellphone he had left behind at a Franklin business.
The tipster reported the footage to the Franklin Police Department, according to the Justice Department .
During a subsequent search of Campos-Hurtado's home and vehicle, investigators found electronic devices containing child sexual abuse material, along with numerous counterfeit immigration and identification documents.
While the offenses related to his convictions occurred between 2017 and 2021, forensic analysis of his electronic devices determined that Campos-Hurtado had been producing child sexual abuse material since at least Jan. 13, 2013, federal prosecutors said.
It was not clear when he illegally entered the United States, DHS said.

I am just an average American. My teen years were in the late 70s and I participated in all that that decade offered. Started working young, too young. Then I joined the Army before I graduated High School. I spent 25 years in, mostly in Infantry units. Since then I've worked in information technology positions all at small family owned companies. At this rate I'll never be a tech millionaire. When I was young I rode horses as much as I could. I do believe I should have been a cowboy. I'm getting in the saddle again by taking riding lessons and see where it goes.
