United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Jay Clayton, announced today that JUSTIN HEATH SMITH, a/k/a “Austin Wolf,” was sentenced to 19 years in prison for enticing a minor to engage in illegal sexual activity and for engaging in a pattern of activity involving prohibited sexual conduct. SMITH’s sentence was imposed by U.S. District Judge Paul A. Engelmayer, who also presided over the guilty plea.
“Justin Heath Smith’s crimes against children are horrible,” said U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton. “He targeted kids as young as seven, and every New Yorker wants him and those like him off our streets for as long as possible and never again near our children. The women and men of our Office, and our law enforcement partners, are laser focused on ridding our streets of those who sexually exploit our children. The message to predators from our Office is clear: there is no place for you in New York other than prison.”
According to the Information, the plea agreement, and statements made in court:
Since at least 2023, SMITH has repeatedly preyed on and tried to sexually exploit minor victims. In late 2023 or early 2024, SMITH and an adult male (“Male-1”) met with a 15-year-old minor, during which Male-1 performed oral sex on the minor while SMITH masturbated. SMITH also had sex at least three times with an individual whom SMITH believed was 15 years old, but who was in fact an adult. SMITH recorded one such encounter, a threesome with Male-1.
SMITH tried to make other arrangements to meet with other minors to engage in sexual activity. In January 2024, SMITH made plans with another male (“Male-2”) to sexually abuse a purported nine-year-old child that Male-2 claimed to be babysitting. SMITH traveled to Male-2’s building for the encounter, which Male-2 called off while SMITH was waiting downstairs. In February 2024, SMITH also made plans to meet a purported 14-year-old for sex, including discussing the specific sex act that the purported minor would perform on SMITH. SMITH provided his cross-streets so that the purported minor could travel to SMITH’s apartment. The planned encounter did not ultimately occur.
SMITH also solicited child sexual abuse material from at least one minor and multiple individuals who purported to be minors. For example, SMITH communicated with a 15-year-old minor and, after the minor told SMITH his age, SMITH asked the minor for sexually explicit materials. The minor then sent SMITH a video showing the minor’s penis and anus. SMITH also communicated with an individual online whose username contained the phrase “12M,” suggesting that the user was a 12-year-old male. SMITH and the purported minor appear to have exchanged sexual photographs and discussed a possible meeting location.
Prior to his arrest, SMITH made plans to meet with an individual who claimed to be the father of a seven-year-old child and who offered to make the child available to SMITH for sexual abuse. Federal law enforcement executed a search warrant on SMITH’s residence before the planned encounter could occur. Following that search, SMITH was found in possession of approximately 1,291 files containing child pornography, including around 75 files showing infants or toddlers and some videos depicting the violent rape of young children. SMITH also shared child pornography with at least 15 other individuals.
Anyone who believes they have information concerning the exploitation of children is urged to contact the FBI at 1-212-384-1000 or https://tips.fbi.gov/.

Mr. Clayton praised the outstanding investigative work of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
This case is being handled by the Office’s General Crimes Unit. Assistant U.S. Attorney Getzel Berger is in charge of the prosecution.

No one here is surprised after reading this article.
He’ll be the belle of the ball.
That toddlering town...
Even in New York, that needs serious jail time.
So gay.
A gay child predator got time in New York’s Southern District. I am genuinely surprised. Progs love their gay child predators and groomers. He must have said something kind about Trump once.
Just long enough until the likelihood of his being beaten to death in prison reaches 100%.
*facepalm*
You have to wonder if a muslim would have been charged.
Thank You for the perfect post.
The WORD OF GOD always speaks truth best.
God bless you 😇😇😇🙏🙏🙏
You understand why I do it
✝️✝️🙏🙏🛐🛐

Oh my gosh. I just saw that.
😮😲😧🤯🙀😳😱
(This adult film star is well known in the gay community.)
Apparently so. When I looked up the name and pictures, I noticed that several of the picture sources seemed to have LGBTQ+-sounding domain names.
I was afraid 🤯😳 to click on them so I got the picture above from Google image search results.
Same should be done to Jimmy Kimmel.
Who’d he piss off? Pervs never get such sentences.
Hope he likes being on bottom.Wink
Well, that’s not disgusting or depraved or anything. 😣
