A 36-year-old Fort Worth man who produced child pornography was sentenced on May 30, 2025, to 50 years in federal prison, announced Nancy Larson, Acting United States Attorney for the Northern District of Texas.

Jamie Hackney pled guilty to a two-count indictment charging him with the production and transportation of child pornography in February 2025. He was sentenced on Friday to 600 months in federal prison by United States District Judge Reed O'Connor.

According to court documents, the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children issued a Cybertip to the Fort Worth Police Department (FWPD) regarding images that were uploaded to Hackney's Google account. Through their investigation, FWPD uncovered forensic evidence of Hackney using a minor to create and subsequently transport child pornography.

The Federal Bureau of Investigation and the Fort Worth Police Department conducted the investigation. The case was prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Allyson Monte.
