Blaine of Harlan sentenced to 7 years in federal prison
On December 12th, 42 year old Jesse Daniel Blaine of Harlan was sentenced 84 months in federal prison for receiving child pornography. According to public court documents, the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children received a CyberTip that an account, later determined to be associated with Blaine, received files containing child sexual abuse material. Law enforcement seized electronic devices during a search of Blaine’s Harlan Residence. A forensic examination of the seized electronic devices showed that Blain used his electronic devices to receive, view and possess images and videos of child sexual abuse material and to search for child sex stories. After completing his term of imprisonment, Blaine will be required to serve a five year term of supervised release. There is no parole in the federal system. Blain was also ordered to pay $21,000 in restitution.
