SHARE NOW

A Southern Tier sex offender is going back to prison for a dozen years on multiple child pornography convictions. Donald Campbell, Senior, was sentenced in U.S. District Court in Rochester.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Katelyn M. Hartford, who handled the case, stated that between July 25, 2022, and January 9, 2023, Campbell, of Elmira, possessed digital devices including a cell phone and an SD card, both of which contained images and videos of child pornography. Campbell downloaded and distributed the images via the Internet. In total, he possessed more than 600 images and videos, some of which depicted prepubescent children less than 12 years old being subjected to violent sexual abuse, and the sexual abuse of an infant.

Campbell is a registered level-three sex offender, the highest risk level, following two prior felony child pornography offenses in New York State Court in December 2004 and March 2019.

The sentencing is the result of an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation Child Exploitation Human Trafficking Task Force.
