ORLANDO, Fla. – A Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) Orlando investigation into a Florida man has concluded with a federal judge sentencing him to 60 years in federal prison for producing child sexual abuse material.
Muhamad Almufada Adi, 49, Orlando, was also ordered by the court to forfeit the electronic devices used in the commission of the offense. Adi entered a guilty plea on May 14, 2024.
“Protecting our children from sexual exploitation is a moral obligation for Homeland Security Investigations and our partners at the Orange County Sheriff’s Office,” said Homeland Security Investigation Tampa Special Agent in Charge John Condon. “Our mutual steadfast commitment comes with an unwavering vigilance and compassion for victims.”
According to court documents, between 2018 and 2022, Adi sexually abused a minor victim and produced child sexual abuse material of the child. Adi then uploaded the child sexual abuse material to online cloud and social media accounts. Adi also sexually abused a second minor victim and forced the second child to look at the child sexual abuse material that had been produced of the first child.
This case was investigated by HSI Orlando and the Orange County Sheriff’s Office. It was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Diane Hu.
