Adult film star Austin Wolf has been sentenced to 19 years in prison after being found guilty on two counts related to child sexual exploitation, People reports.
Last June, the 44-year-old adult entertainer, real name Justin Heath Smith, was arrested on child pornography charges after it was discovered that he had an SD card containing footage of children forced into sex acts, with some being infants. In June of this year, Wolf pleaded guilty to enticing a minor to engage in sexual activity during a federal court hearing in Manhattan.
On Monday (September 29), it was reported that the adult performer was sentenced to 19 years in prison for enticing a minor to engage in illegal sexual activity and for participating in a pattern of sexual misconduct.
In a statement, United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, Jay Clayton, called the child sex crimes "horrible." "He targeted kids as young as seven, and every New Yorker wants him and those like him off our streets for as long as possible and never again near our children," Clayton continued.
"The women and men of our Office, and our law enforcement partners, are laser focused on ridding our streets of those who sexually exploit our children. The message to predators from our Office is clear: there is no place for you in New York other than prison."
Among the stomach-turning crimes, since 2023, Wolf is said to have performed oral sex on a minor while masturbating, solicited child sex abuse material from multiple individuals who claimed to be minors, and exchanged inappropriate pictures with a 12-year-old boy, who he had planned to meet.
In the SD card were over 1,200 files containing child porn, which Wolf reportedly shared with fifteen others.
