Description: St Paul, MN criminal lawyer represented Defendant charged with 2 Counts Production of Child Pornography and 1 Count of Interstate Communications with Intent to Extort.

Victimizing more than 1,100 minor girls across the country and abroad in an extensive online sextortion scheme.
According to court documents, for at least five years, Yue Vang, 31, created and used multiple Internet applications and social media services, including Kik, Snapchat, and Skype, to communicate with hundreds of minor girls throughout the United States and elsewhere. Vang created fake female personae to prey on vulnerable minor girls he met online in order to entice and coerce them to create sexually explicit images and videos to send to him. Vang also threatened to disseminate sexually explicit images of the minor victims to their family members, friends, and classmates, unless they created and sent him additional images and videos of themselves nude or engaging in sexually explicit conduct. For example, in June 2016, Vang contacted a 15-year-old girl and threatened to distribute sexually explicit pictures of her to her classmates and parents to “ruin her life” unless she complied with Vang’s demands to send additional sexually explicit images and videos.

Outcome: Yue Vang was sentenced to 516 months in prison followed by a lifetime term of supervised release.
