A Bogota judge sentenced a U.S. citizen
to 15 years in jail for child pornography. The sentence followed a
three year ordeal where he was acquitted by a judge in first instance.
The North American accessed websites where he
contacted minors using webcams that facilitated the exhibition of child
pornography and virtual sexual contact.
During the trial, it was revealed that Ralph Paladino
had two convictions in the United States for similar offenses. At the
time Paladino escaped parole and took refuge in Colombia
where he continued his activities.
Once the sentence is served he will be expelled from the country to the United States, where Justice awaits him for the crimes committed in his home country.
