Quincy Man Sentenced to Five Years in Prison for Child Pornography Offense

BOSTON – A Quincy man was sentenced in federal court in Boston yesterday for receiving child pornography.

Matthew Ormon, 51, was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge Denise J. Casper to five years in prison followed by five years of supervised release. In July 2023, Ormon pleaded guilty to one count of receipt of child pornography. 

During a search of Ormon’s residence on April 5, 2022, multiple electronic devices, including two custom built computers and a network drive device were seized. At least one device was found to contain a folder with numerous videos depicting child pornography. Some of these files involved minor females performing sex acts on adult males.

Acting United States Attorney Joshua S. Levy and Jodi Cohen, Special Agent in Charge of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, Boston Division made the announcement. Special assistance was provided by the Quincy Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorney Charles Dell’Anno of the Criminal Division prosecuted the case.

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 Department of Justice. Led by the U.S. Attorneys’ Offices and the DOJ’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who exploit children, as well as identify and rescue victims.
