Warren also told the app user that he was interested in meeting up to engage in sexual activity and watch child pornography that Warren would provide, U.S. Attorney for the Western District of Texas Jaime Esparza said in a news release. Warren used the app to send two photos of an adult male sexually assaulting a child.
Warren traveled in August 2022 to meet the messaging app user at a hotel, where he expected to engage in sexual acts with the user’s 9-year-old nephew, Esparza said. Instead, Warren was met by FBI agents who arrested him and seized his phone.
In addition to his sentencing, Warren was ordered to pay $140,840 to the victim who was impacted by the sexual exploitation charge and $100,000 to 20 additional victims, a news release said.
