MIAMI – A Miami man was sentenced to life in federal prison after pleading guilty to traveling to Colombia for the purpose of having sex with minors.
According to court documents, law enforcement officers stopped Stefan Andres Correa, 42, on the jet bridge at Miami International Airport as he attempted to board a flight to Bogota, Colombia. During an outbound border search, officers discovered nine cellular phones in Correa’s possession. A search of the cellular phones uncovered over 100 videos of Correa having sex with over 50 minors. The minors were between 11 and 17 years of age. A search of one of the cell phones also revealed a text message exchange with a sex trafficker in Colombia, who Correa agreed to pay $300,000 Colombian pesos (the equivalent of $75 U.S. dollars) to arrange for commercial sex with children that were 10 to 12 years old.
“The United States of America will always seek to protect children near and far,” said U.S. Attorney Hayden P. O’Byrne for the Southern District of Florida. “This prosecution and this sentence should serve as a warning to any predator who is trying to travel through our District to prey on children. We will find you and prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law. A life sentence for this conduct is entirely appropriate. Predators such as Correa are a scourge upon humanity, and must be dealt with accordingly.”
“To the brave survivors, your courage was the driving force in this case, and I hope that the life sentence of this predator brings you some measure of justice and relief,” said Jose R. Figueroa, Acting Special Agent in Charge of Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) in Miami. “This investigation underscores the global and horrific nature of child sex trafficking and the importance of international cooperation to end it. I thank our federal and Colombian counterparts for their steadfast dedication and reiterate HSI’s continued commitment to holding those who prey on minors fully accountable.”
HSI Miami investigated the case with assistance from HSI offices in Cleveland, Ohio and Bogota, Colombia, as well as U.S. Customs and Border Protection (CBP). The Narcotic and Dangerous Drug Section’s Office of the Judicial Attaché in Bogota, Colombia also provided critical assistance.
Major Crimes Deputy Chief Assistant U.S. Attorney Lauren Astigarraga prosecuted the case.
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 Criminal Division’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section (CEOS), 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.

He's a Miami pharmacist.
Miami pharmacist who sexually abused girls in Colombia is off to prison, feds say
"When Correa spoke to investigators, he told them he had traveled to Colombia about 45 times to “have sex with minors,” records show.
In a letter to the judge, Correa said he was taking accountability for his actions — and stated that he “had a unhealthy yet treatable sex drive.”

There is a new sheriff in town.
I’m surprised the democrat sexual weirdo community hasn’t offered support for this creep...
Do pharmacists usually have $300,000 just lying around???? He was probably deeper into the CP thing than they know of right now.
The gay couple from Ga who were raping their adoptive kids, were loaning them out and filming their adopted children being abused. This was how they were able to purchase a mansion and other luxuries. Their own families didn’t know how they were so wealthy.
What this pervert did is normal in Islamic countries. Their so called Prophet was a Pedophile so the behavior is protected under Sharia law. Apparently this and their hatred of the West and their terrorist efforts to destroy Western Civilization are insufficient for keeping them out.
It said that it was 300,000 Pesos, = to $75 of our dollars.
This man is going to have a rough time in prison. I don’t feel sorry for him though, he deserves worse.
And yet the government continues to hide the names of those who visited Epstein”s Island for the same reason!
His “unhealthy yet treatable sex drive.” can be treated with a rusty dull butter knife used to remove certain non vital organs.
Take the organs.
Dead pedophiles never reoffend
He may have been stealing / dealing from his pharmaceutical supplies. Medical fraud is rampant, especially among foreign-born / -trained medical personnel. Did you read about the very recent arrest of over 300 members of the “health care community” for fraud? The list of names reads like a U.N. roster.
If we can start slicing their penises off just before the floor to the gallow gives way, not only will we hear their neck snap, but the spray of blood should also provide a compelling visual.
Extreme crime calls for extreme punishment on a very public, worldwide, video stream.
Please watch “Sound of Freedom”!!
“I’m surprised the democrat sexual weirdo community hasn’t offered support for this creep...”
I have to wonder how soon CNN and other MSM networks will announce and promote an app that warns perps like the one above on how to avoid arrest!!
