Milwaukee, Wisconsin criminal defense lawyer represented the Defendant charged with Attempting to Transfer Obscene Material to a Minor
Illinois Man Sentenced to Ten Years in Federal Prison for Attempting to Transfer Obscene Material to a Minor

Terrence E. Fabino, age 61, of Lake County, Illinois engaged in online communications with an individual he believed to be a minor located in Northeast Wisconsin. Fabino requested sexually explicit images from the minor and also sent an obscene image of himself taken in a commuter train bathroom to the minor, who was actually an undercover law enforcement officer.

At sentencing, Senior United States District Court Judge William C. Griesbach noted the serious nature of the offense and the need to protect the community, particularly minors, from Fabino’s actions. After serving his prison sentence, Fabino will spend three years on supervised release and will be required to register as a sexual offender under state and federal law.

This case was investigated by the Manitowoc County Sheriff’s Office. It was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Daniel R. Humble.

This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse launched in May 2006, by the U.S. Department of Justice. Led by U.S. Attorneys’ Offices and the Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section (CEOS), Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state and local resources to better locate, apprehend and prosecute individuals who exploit children via the Internet, as well as to identify and rescue victims.
