Arcara.&nbsp;60 months of his federal sentence will be served consecutive to a sentence he received in New York State Court after being convicted in Wyoming County following a jury trial of use of a child in a sexual performance as a sexually motivated felony, unlawful surveillance in the second degree, criminal sexual act in the second degree and endangering the welfare of a child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On February 24, 2018, a 15-year-old minor victim disclosed that she had been sexually abused by&nbsp;Hildreth and that she had seen child pornography on his cell phone. She reported that Hildreth was traveling from the Western District of New York to Aurora, MO.&nbsp; During an encounter with Hildreth later that day, law enforcement seized his cell phone. A search of the cell phone located 12 images of child pornography. Hildreth had engaged in a pattern of activity involving the sexual abuse or exploitation of a minor, which involved sexual contact on two separate occasions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The case was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorneys Aaron J. Mango and Douglas A. C. Penrose. The sentencing is the result of an investigation by the Aurora-Marionville Police Department, under the direction of Chief Wes Coatney, Homeland Security investigations, under the direction of Acting Special Agent-in-Charge Anthony Patrone, and the New York State Police, under the direction of Major Amie Feroleto. Additional assistance was provided by the Southwest Missouri Cyber Crimes Task Force and the Wyoming County District Attorney\u2019s Office.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Previously:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-video-news-service wp-block-embed-video-news-service\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"4W0GcVFRub\"><a href=\"https:\/\/videonewsservice.net\/index.php\/2024\/11\/20\/wyoming-county-eagle-man-indicted-on-charges-of-transportation-and-possession-of-child-pornography\/\">WYOMING COUNTY\/Eagle man indicted on charges of transportation and possession of child pornography<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"\u201cWYOMING COUNTY\/Eagle man indicted on charges of transportation and possession of child pornography\u201d \u2014 Video News Service\" src=\"https:\/\/videonewsservice.net\/index.php\/2024\/11\/20\/wyoming-county-eagle-man-indicted-on-charges-of-transportation-and-possession-of-child-pornography\/embed\/#?secret=0L3OSNr4y8#?secret=4W0GcVFRub\" data-secret=\"4W0GcVFRub\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-wp-embed is-provider-video-news-service wp-block-embed-video-news-service\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"wp-embedded-content\" data-secret=\"f2fZ6WrwuS\"><a href=\"https:\/\/videonewsservice.net\/index.php\/2019\/10\/24\/wyoming-county-eagle-man-sentenced-to-22-years-in-prison-for-possessing-child-porn-and-using-a-child-in-a-sexual-performance\/\">WYOMING COUNTY\/Eagle man sentenced to 22 years in prison for possessing child porn and using a child in a sexual performance<\/a><\/blockquote><iframe loading=\"lazy\" class=\"wp-embedded-content\" sandbox=\"allow-scripts\" security=\"restricted\" style=\"position: absolute; visibility: hidden;\" title=\"\u201cWYOMING COUNTY\/Eagle man sentenced to 22 years in prison for possessing child porn and using a child in a sexual performance\u201d \u2014 Video News Service\" src=\"https:\/\/videonewsservice.net\/index.php\/2019\/10\/24\/wyoming-county-eagle-man-sentenced-to-22-years-in-prison-for-possessing-child-porn-and-using-a-child-in-a-sexual-performance\/embed\/#?secret=5IDfC1o11n#?secret=f2fZ6WrwuS\" data-secret=\"f2fZ6WrwuS\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" frameborder=\"0\" marginwidth=\"0\" marginheight=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Press release BUFFALO, N.Y. &#8211;&nbsp;U.S. Attorney Michael DiGiacomo announced today that Shayne M.&nbsp;Hildreth, 46, of Bliss, NY, who was convicted of transportation of child pornography, was sentenced to serve 117 months in prison by U.S. District Judge Richard J.
