- Read details of the most scandalous case
US court ends trial of maniac pedophile John Michael Musbach. He was sentenced to 6.5 years in prison and a $30,000 fine. The maximum sentence under this article is 10 years.
The 34-year-old New Jersey resident introduced himself to teenage boys over the Internet. He rubbed himself in and then asked his victims to take pictures of their genitals. Musbach himself also sent images of his penis to children.
One of the victims, a 13-year-old child, threatened to tell his parents about the molestation and show the pornographic material he sent in private correspondence.
In response, Musbach contacted a hit man to order the murder of an unwanted witness.. The man paid 40 BTC for such work.
The website through which the pedophile hired the killer turned out to be fake.. As a result, his data ended up with the police. A search of Musbach’s home turned up pornographic material, as well as a computer that contained traces of correspondence.
The case has been pending since 2017. Musbach initially pleaded guilty to sexual acts against children. The court then sentenced him to two years probation with life on parole. However, the police later learned details about the communication with the would-be killer. Therefore, the sentence was commuted to 6.5 years in prison and a $30,000 fine.
We recall that in Vietnam, two men received a life sentence for stealing $1.5 million in cryptocurrency.
