Oklahoma州Tulsa男子Charles Barranco持有逾1.25万张儿童性虐待图片被判78个月：曾借公共图书馆网络上传逾60次
美国司法部俄克拉荷马北区联邦检察官办公室（USAO）公布，Oklahoma 州 Tulsa 市 71 岁男子 Charles Barranco 因在印第安地区持有儿童色情内容罪名成立，已于 2026 年 10 月 21 日被联邦法院判处 78 个月监禁，出狱后还须接受 5 年监管释放，并须登记为性犯罪者、支付 36,000 美元赔偿。
联邦地区法官 John D. Russell 作出上述判决。联邦检察官 Christopher J. Nassar 表示，Barranco 一再搜寻涉及儿童剥削的材料，甚至利用公共图书馆作案，其行为属于掠夺性质，对最弱势的人群造成了真实伤害；本案体现了检方保护儿童、追究此类行为者全部责任的决心。
法庭文件显示，2025 年 9 月，Tulsa 警方在接到 Google 提供的网络线索（CyberTip）后，对 Barranco 的住所和电子账户执行了搜查令，线索指向与其 Google 账户关联的疑似儿童性虐待材料上传记录；调查人员随后确认他还与多条其他网络线索相关联。
对相关 IP 地址的审查显示，Barranco 不仅使用自家网络，还使用 Tulsa City County Library 的公共网络 60 多次，把儿童性虐待材料（CSAM）上传到自己的 Google 账户。对该账户的取证审查发现逾 11,000 张相关图片，在其被查扣的电子设备中又发现逾 1,500 张。
量刑听证上，检方以犯罪严重性、材料数量庞大及被告在释放期间的行为为由，主张判处量刑指南上限的 97 个月；辩方以其年龄等理由主张 36 个月。法官最终判处 78 个月。Barranco 目前在押，等待转送联邦监狱局。
此案由 Tulsa 警方与国土安全调查局（HSI）调查，助理联邦检察官 Ashley Robert 负责起诉。本案属于司法部 2006 年 5 月发起的全国性「儿童安全计划」（Project Safe Childhood）的一部分，该计划统筹联邦、州、地方与部落各级资源，打击利用互联网剥削儿童的行为并营救受害者。
Tulsa, Oklahoma Man Charles Barranco Sentenced to 78 Months for Possessing More Than 12,500 Child Sexual Abuse Images, Including Uploads via a Public Library Network
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Northern District of Oklahoma announced that Charles Barranco, 71, of Tulsa, Oklahoma, was sentenced on October 21, 2026, to 78 months in federal prison for possession of child pornography in Indian Country, followed by five years of supervised release. Upon release, Barranco will be required to register as a sex offender, and he was ordered to pay $36,000 in restitution.
U.S. District Judge John D. Russell imposed the sentence. U.S. Attorney Christopher J. Nassar said Barranco repeatedly sought out material involving the exploitation of children, even using a public library to do so, that his actions were predatory in nature and inflicted real harm on the most vulnerable, and that the case reflects an unwavering commitment to protecting children and holding those who engage in this behavior fully accountable.
According to court documents, in September 2025 the Tulsa Police Department executed search warrants on Barranco's residence and electronic accounts after receiving a CyberTip from Google identifying uploads of suspected child sexual abuse material linked to his Google account. Investigators later determined that Barranco was associated with multiple additional CyberTips.
Court filings also show that a review of associated IP addresses revealed that Barranco used not only his personal internet service but also the Tulsa City County Library public internet system more than 60 times to upload child sexual abuse material (CSAM) into his Google account. A forensic review of that account uncovered over 11,000 images, and a subsequent search of his seized electronic devices uncovered more than 1,500 additional images.
At sentencing, the United States argued for a 97-month term, the high end of the advisory guideline range, citing the seriousness of the offense, the volume of material, and the defendant's conduct while on release. The defense argued for a 36-month term, citing, among other things, Barranco's age. Barranco was ultimately sentenced to 78 months and will remain in custody pending transfer to the U.S. Bureau of Prisons.
The Tulsa Police Department and Homeland Security Investigations investigated the case, and Assistant U.S. Attorney Ashley Robert prosecuted it. The case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched by the Department of Justice in May 2006 to combat child sexual exploitation and abuse, led by U.S. Attorneys' Offices and the Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section.
