150 Years Sentence in Child Pornography Case The abuser turned himself into the victim	By Marius Oiaga, Technology News Editor 17th of July 2006, 09:38 GMT Adjust text size:


Gregory Mitchel, 39, was sentenced to 150 years in prison for his involvement in the sexual exploitation of underage boys and for administrating illegal Websites related to the production and distribution of child pornography. The accused pleaded guilty to all the charges during a January hearing, following his arrest in September. One of his victims, a 19-year-old California man named Justin Berry, who at the time of the contact was just 13 years old, had implicated Mitchel in the case related to teenage boys running pornography sites for money. Berry revealed that since he was 13, he had been exploited in order to perform sexual acts in front of his Webcam. In order for him to testify in the case he became a federal witness and was granted immunity from the US government. Mitchel went as far as stating that the underage Berry had manipulated him, and that he was but a victim of the boy who was actually managing the financial aspects of the justinsfriends.com site. Mitchel's statement was contradicted by the evidence of the case and the man who had been previously convicted of child pornography charges received the 150 years sentence.
