Crimes against Children 10-13-12 Part II

Livingston, TX

A Livingston youth pastor and youth coach is behind bars, charged with possession of child pornography and sexual assault of a child.

A traffic stop in Georgia led investigators to 46 year-old David Shannon's Polk County home on Wednesday. Investigators said the driver of the car in Georgia had child pornography, including a thumb drive with a video of a man sexually assaulting a boy.

Detectives said they traced the thumb drive back to Shannon and confirmed that he was the man in the video. Shannon's wife identified the victim in the video as the son of family friends.

James M. Mansfield, a manager who has worked for Boston’s Transportation Department for nearly 30 years, was arrested Friday on child pornography charges and put on unpaid leave, officials said.

Boston police arrested Mansfield, 47, of Charlestown, following an investigation alleging that he was “engaging in graphically sexual chat and exchanging pictures of boys in various stages of undress,” police said in a statement Saturday.

Midland, MI
A former U.S. Navy seaman was sentenced today to five years in prison for possessing child pornography, announced Assistant Attorney General Lanny A. Breuer of the Justice Departments Criminal Division.


James Driver, 24, of Midland, Mich., was sentenced today by U.S. District Judge Thomas L. Ludington in the Eastern District of Michigan. In addition to his prison term, Driver was sentenced to five years of supervised release. After Driver completes his prison term, he must register as a sex offender as a condition of release.

Following a four-day jury trial, Driver was found guilty on May 21, 2012, of one count of possessing child pornography. According to court documents and testimony presented during the trial, the case originated from a Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) investigation into an individual, later identified as Driver, suspected of possessing and distributing child pornography using a peer-to-peer file sharing network. Driver, who at the time was a U.S. Navy seaman stationed in Japan, admitted in an interview to being interested in child pornography for the past five years.
