One man will spend the next 30 years behind bars after pleading guilty to producing child sexual abuse material.
, man has been sentenced for producing child sexual abuse material following a Homeland Security Investigations investigation, authorities said.
According to a release, 24-year-old Javier Garza Jr was sentenced to 30 years behind bars after pleading guilty in July 2022. According to court documents, the investigation began after Garza’s girlfriend discovered child sexual abuse material on Garza’s cell phone. She quickly recognized the child in the videos as her own three-year-old daughter and contacted authorities. HSI ultimately found videos of child pornography on Garza’s cell phone.
"Garza is the definition of a monster," said U.S. Attorney Alamdar S. Hamdani. "He sexually abused a three-year-old little girl — his girlfriend’s daughter — causing severe harm to the most vulnerable amongst us. Thankfully, this deviant is now behind bars. This sentence ensures that Javier Garza will never again exploit a little child."
FOX 26 Houston is now on the FOX LOCAL app available through Apple TV, Amazon FireTV, Roku and Google Android TV! "This lengthy sentence is a testament to the repugnant nature of child exploitation crimes, particularly the production of child pornography which only perpetuates the trauma endured by victims," said HSI San Antonio Special Agent in Charge Craig Larrabee.
