Man Arrested For Allegedly Having Sex With 2-Month-Old Victim Among Youngest Ever

SACRAMENTO -- An El Dorado Hills man is being held without bond on federal child pornography charges after agents on Monday said they seized images from his home showing him performing sexual acts with a 2-month-old girl.

U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents said the girl is one of the youngest sexual assault victims they have ever encountered.

Larry Michael Jeffs, 41, was arrested at his home Thursday after the agents said they found explicit video images showing him engaging in sexual acts with the infant, who is now 8 months old.

Jeffs is alleged to have distributed the images over the Internet, where they were recovered during a child pornography investigation in Detroit. The agents said they traced the images to Jeffs' e-mail.

Federal agents and the agents with the California Department of Justice Sexual Predator Apprehension Team raided Jeffs' home and seized computer equipment, a digital camera, and infant's clothing and bedding.

Jeffs remains in the Sacramento County Jail, charged with producing and distributing child pornography, which carry a maximum prison term of 50 years.

The continuing Detroit investigation is part of the government's Operation Predator, which targets child sexual predators worldwide, including subscribers to Internet child pornography Web sites. Since it began in July, the sweep has brought more than 2,000 arrests nationwide.

I do not understand why U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement was involved?

I could shoot the guy dead and then go right out for pizza.

This is sick. This sicko needs to be strung up and then quartered by four horses!

Get a rope.

But first, hook his gonads up to a car battery and turn on the juice.

Spoken like a true Texan.

I agree.

I don't understand why he was arrested. An accidental weapon discharge while handcuffing him just might, MIGHT, prove fatal.

I think I'll go throw up now and then take a shower.

Not enough punishment before death, we need high str acid and some other flamible materials.

But he was expressing his civil rights, just like gays who want to marry.

why U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement was involved

This will answer your question....Mash here

Several years ago a sub-human did the same thing to an infant in a church nursery. The baby asphyxiated. The sub-human was killed shortly thereafter by "unknown assailants"

I don't see why INS is involved either. But, beyond that, I can't read any further. This is just too, too disturbing. Absolutely beyond comprehension. I would have no problem pulling the trigger on this guy. If anyone (lawyer) dares to utter "insanity defense", I'd pull the trigger on him too.

How about changing the title to "Those That Wish to be Sickened Click Here". I hate seeing this stuff on the sidebar and knowing that it exists...

sick sick sick sick sick sick. pray the child retains no memory of this, pray this animal goes straight into general population at the nearest Federal Pen.

Maybe he is an immigrant? Or he brought in that baby from another country for that purpose?

[Hildy]

Now, just on a purely logical level...this man thinks he could put it out on the internet and nothing would happen to him? Does that make any sense?

Before they execute him, he needs to be roommate to Bubba, a 300 pound gay guy.
