According to a recent report from the Roswell Police Department, Juan Dedios Martinez-Camacho has been arrested for the possession and distribution of child pornography.

Martinez-Camacho, a 46-year-old illegal immigrant, was reportedly being investigated by the Georgia Bureau of Investigation Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force since early March of this year.

The investigation was the result of a tip coming from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. After nearly two months, the GBI attained a search warrant for Martinez-Camacho's residence in Roswell, Georgia.

Upon searching the residence, agents said they recovered "several devices which were determined to contain sexually explicit images of children," Martinez-Camacho was subsequently charged with possession and distribution of child pornography.

Martinez-Camacho is currently being housed at the Fulton County Jail without bail. In the case that he should be released from jail, Immigration and Customs Enforcement have placed a detainer on the man. Thus, upon his release, he will immediately become a detainee under ICE's jurisdiction and will then be processed for deportation.

If Martinez-Camacho is found guilty, he could be sentenced to 15-30 years in prison. This is standard for first time offenders according to federal and state child pornography laws.

Federal laws regarding child pornography are:

• 18 USC § 2251- Sexual exploitation of children
• 18 USC § 2251A- Selling or buying of children
• 18 USC § 2252- Certain activities relating to material involving the sexual exploitation of minors
• 18 USC § 2252A- Certain activities relating to material constituting or containing child pornography
• 18 USC § 2260- Production of sexually explicit depictions of a minor for importation into the United States

While there is a slight difference between violating state child pornography laws and federal child pornography laws, on this day in age, they are usually the same. They could likely fall under international law as well. According to FindLaw.com, the violation transitions from state to federal when the crime is carried across state lines, this could be done via the internet or the postal service.

Anyone who is convicted of sexually laden crimes must register as a sex offender, and this includes a recent photo, the criminals' address, as well as other essential information, will be uploaded to a database. This information is of public record, and some areas require those convicted to introduce themselves as sex offenders when relocating to a new neighborhood or town.

However, when these crimes are committed by individuals who are not in the country lawfully and legally, it really casts a negative shadow on those who wish to make an honest and respectable living in this great land.
