Brenton Cronebach, 56, of Dover, was sentenced after he pleaded guilty to a charge of transportation of child pornography.
Prosecutors say that on May 12, 2021, law-enforcement officers searched Cronebach’s residence after receiving a tip that numerous files of child pornography had been uploaded to several Google accounts associated with Cronebach. Investigators seized a laptop, computer disks and multiple USB storage devices containing more than 10,000 images and 1,000 videos of child pornography.
Cronebach told investigators he downloaded the files onto USB drives and then uploaded them to Google in the event the drives were damaged. “Accessing and transporting child pornography contributes to the abuse and exploitation of children here and around the world,” first assistant U.S. Attorney Michelle Baeppler said in a statement. “Today’s sentence demonstrates that these offenses are serious and come with significant penalties.”
This case was investigated by the Ohio Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force and the FBI in Canton.
