'It goes without saying that the crimes committed by [Marques] are without parallel,' prosecutors wrote in a sentencing recommendation.
"It goes without saying that the crimes committed by [Marques] are without parallel," prosecutors wrote, saying he"created a 'safe place' for child sexual abusers to meet and share images, videos, to encourage, to promote and discuss the sexual abuse of children, to include infants."
"No punishment can undo the harms reaped upon the victims of child pornography," they wrote."However, the Court must mete out a sentence that weighs that harm among many other factors." Marques pleaded guilty in February 2020 to creating and operating a web hosting service called"Freedom Hosting" on the darknet between 2008 and 2013. The darknet is part of the internet but hosted within an encrypted network. It is accessible only through anonymity-providing tools.
