Carmine Simpson, a former NYPD officer, has been sentenced to 23 years in prison for sexually exploiting minors by luring them online to send explicit videos. He communicated with at least 46 teenagers while pretending to be a minor himself. Victims aged 13-17 were encouraged by Simpson to provide nude photos and even self-harm. His actions were discovered in December 2020, leading to prosecution under Project Safe Childhood. The case highlights the severe breach of trust involving a law enforcement officer.
Carmine Simpson betrayed his badge by preying upon minors for twisted sexual gratification.
The defendant's repeated sexual solicitation and exploitation of minors is reprehensible. That he was a law enforcement officer at the time he committed these crimes makes his conduct even more horrific.
