In 2020, the FBI received a tip from the National Center of Missing and Exploited Children. They followed up on the tip and discovered evidence at the man’s home in Lake Worth.

Also in December, the man pled guilty to conspiring to receive, possess, and produce child pornography. He was recently sentenced to 50 years in prison.

What is a Master/Slave Relationship?
A master/slave relationship is often different from a BDSM relationship, which blends elements of bondage, discipline, dominance, submission, and sadomasochism.
A master/slave relationship, however, focuses on obedience and service, like being a slave. The term slave is associated with ownership rights. Male “masters” will usually be referred to as “Master,” while female masters are referred to as “Master” or “Mistress.” Those in these relationships may be any gender or sexual orientation. These relationships are consensual. There is no usually no coercion involved.
