Jarratt A. Turner, who was known for dressing as Spider-Man to wash the windows at Vanderbilt Children's Hospital in Nashville, Tenn., was sentenced April 16 to 105 years in federal prison for multiple counts of producing and transporting child pornography, according to The Washington Post.
The now 36-year-old was charged in June 2015 with 16 counts of production of child pornography and transportation of child pornography, and pleaded guilty to all counts in March 2017.
Court records showed Mr. Turner befriended two families with young children and offered to baby-sit. Between October 2014 and May 2015, Mr. Turner took sexually explicit images and videos of a toddler-age girl on 10 occasions and of an infant boy on six occasions while he baby-sat them in his Nashville apartment.
Mr. Turner posted the images and videos, which showed him sexually molesting the two children, to a photo-sharing website. His bio on the website read, "I loooooove little ones. I love my little ones the most and hope you love them too," according to court documents.
He used the public Wi-Fi network of a Nashville coffee shop to distribute the images to prevent detection by law enforcement. The manager of the coffee shop helped investigators by providing them with a log of the store's transactions, which investigators compared to times at which Wi-Fi was accessed, according to the report.
"Children of this community are a little safer today with this sexual predator behind bars," Assistant Special Agent in Charge Robert Hammer, who oversees Homeland Security Investigations operations in Tennessee, said in a news release. "The fact he would film, and then upload to the Internet, videos of himself molesting an infant and toddler, then take elaborate steps to conceal his activities, represents the extreme danger he posed to the community."
