Tucson Man Sentenced to 42 Months in Prison for Child Pornography Offense



Enrique Adrian Yanez, 36, of Tucson, was sentenced last week by United States District Judge John C. Hinderaker to 42 months in prison, followed by lifetime supervised release. When Yanez is released from prison, he will be required to register as a sex offender. Yanez pleaded guilty on February 29, 2024, to one count of Knowing Access of Child Pornography.

During the summer of 2022, special agents with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) learned that Yanez was distributing child pornography files through a peer-to-peer file-sharing network. After HSI executed a search warrant on Yanez’s residence, agents located additional child pornography files on a computer belonging to Yanez.

This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice. Led by U.S. Attorneys’ Offices and the Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to better locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who exploit children via the Internet, as well as to identify and rescue victims.

Homeland Security Investigations, Nogales, conducted the investigation in this case. Assistant United States Attorney Nathaniel J. Walters, District of Arizona, Tucson, handled the prosecution.

Outcome:

Defendant was found guilty and sentenced to 42 months in prison, followed by lifetime supervised release. When Yanez is released from prison, he will be required to register as a sex offender
