Escambia Sex Offender Gets 20 Years For Child Porn

September 16, 2015

A registered sex offender from Escambia County has been sentenced to federal prison.

Shawn P. Caldwell, 36, was sentenced to 240 months in prison for receipt of child pornography.

During an undercover operation, law enforcement officers discovered Caldwell was in possession of 76 child pornography files at his Pensacola residence. At his plea hearing on June  24, 2015, Caldwell admitted that, between April 2011 and April 2015, he received child pornography images and videos from the internet, which he downloaded from several peer-to-peer programs. A forensic review of Caldwell’s electronic devices revealed approximately 263 videos and more than 1,000 images of child pornography, including images of children under the age of 12.

The charges were the result of an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation, the Florida Department of Law Enforcement, and the Pensacola Police Department.

    @Sedition, the sad part of it is, it is most likely the parent(s) taking the pictures/abusing the children in the photographs being downloaded by others online. So turning the pedophile over to the same parent for some recourse would do no good.

    Is there something in the water around here?
    What’s up with all of the pedophiles and child pornography freaks in the news lately?!
    You want to stop this sickness? Hand these perverts over to the fathers of the children victimized.
    No muss, no fuss, no burden on the taxpayers.

    A sick and disgusting obsession.

    He should have stayed focused on the music files.
