FBI Press Release
MOBILE, AL – Chandler Broderick, 27, was sentenced today to 151 months in prison for distributing obscene visual representations of the sexual abuse of children. Broderick pleaded guilty to the offense on July 27, 2026.
In August 2024, the Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) received an anonymous tip alleging that Broderick was harassing minors online. FBI agents obtained the contents of Broderick’s online accounts and discovered that he had sent computer-generated, obscene cartoon images depicting the sexual abuse of children to minors.
United States District Chief Judge Jeffrey U. Beaverstock sentenced Broderick to 151 months in prison, followed by 15 years of supervised release. During his term of imprisonment, Broderick will be required to participate in sex offender treatment and mental health treatment. Upon his release, he will be required to register as a sex offender and will be prohibited from having contact with minors. Broderick was also ordered to pay $200 in special assessments.
“Protecting children from online exploitation is a priority for this office, and those who use the internet to expose minors to obscene material depicting child sexual abuse will be held accountable,” said U.S. Attorney Sean P. Costello. “We remain committed to working with our law enforcement partners to identify offenders, protect children, and pursue federal prosecution when warranted.”
“Those who sexually exploit children should understand that the FBI will pursue them relentlessly. These crimes inflict lasting harm, and Chandler Broderick’s sentence demonstrates the serious consequences of preying on vulnerable victims. Protecting children and bringing offenders to justice remain central to our mission of protecting the American people,” said Jordan Hadfield, Assistant Special Agent in Charge, FBI Mobile.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation investigated the case. Assistant U.S. Attorneys Kacey Chappelear and Tandice Blackwood prosecuted the case on behalf of the United States.
This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse. Led by the United States Attorneys’ Offices and the Criminal Division’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who sexually exploit children, and to identify and rescue victims.
