NEWPORT NEWS, VA—Isaiah Al’Von Holloman, 22, of Newport News, Va., was sentenced today to 160 months in prison, followed by 25 years of supervised release for Receipt of Child Pornography.

Settles, Special Agent in Charge of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s Homeland Security Investigations, Washington, D.

Holloman plead guilty on January 14, 2015. According to court documents, federal agents identified the defendant via a Peer-to-Peer network on his computer.

He admitted he conducted Internet activities using on-line applications including Facebook, Instagram, Kik, livechat, Dropbox, anonymous chat, and Sharazza, and that he obtained child pornography using Sharazza. Further, he created and used a Dropbox to obtain and provide images and videos of child pornography. During the search Holloman identified a laptop computer, tablet, and smartphone all belonging to him and all were seized pursuant to the search warrant. A subsequent forensic examination of these devices revealed over 600 images of child pornography.

This case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of Investigation and Homeland Security Investigations. Assistant U.S. Attorney Lisa R. McKeel is prosecuting the case on behalf of the United States.
