An Alabama 24-year-old will spend the next 19 years in federal prison after he admitted to having child pornography in his possession. Investigators alleged he had more than 1,400 images and videos.

On Monday, U.S. District Court Judge Madeline Hughes Haikala sentenced Jacquez Jarrone Conley, 24, to 235 months in prison followed by 25 years of supervised release.

In August 2023, Conley pleaded guilty to one-count of possession of child pornography. This conviction will require him to register as a sex offender in accordance with the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA).

According to the plea agreement, in July 2019, Conley was involved in an online social media group sharing child pornography.

During that same time, FBI received a CyberTipline Report from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) regarding child sexual abuse material located on his Facebook account.

In August 2019, federal search warrants were obtained for Conley’s residence in Bessemer and his Facebook account.

A total of 18 digital devices were seized from the residence. Forensic analysis of the digital devices and his Facebook account revealed 701 images and 741 videos of child pornography.
