Long Island man Justin Poon pleaded guilty to sexual exploitation of a minor and possession of child pornography in a federal court in Brooklyn, according to a U.S. Attorney’s Office press release. The plea was entered before U.S. Magistrate Judge James R. Cho. Poon, a registered New York state sex offender, faces a mandatory minimum of 25 years and up to 70 years in prison, plus restitution. The prosecution, led by Assistant U.S. Attorney Kamil R. Ammari, said Poon had been exploiting minor girls since at least December 2018, producing and selling child‑pornographic material and running an extortion scheme that involved accessing victims’ private accounts. Search warrants uncovered child‑pornographic images from at least 50 victims. The case is part of the Department of Justice’s Project Safe Childhood.
