South Shore teen sentenced for creating, sharing child sex videos

A South Shore teen was sentenced on Wednesday for creating and sharing child sex videos.

Matthew Quinn is a 19-year-old from Pembroke, according to MassLive.

Quinn was initially indicted in April on five charges: indecent assault and battery on a child under 14, distribution of materials of a nude child, possession of child pornography, photographing an unsuspecting nude person, and lascivious possession or exhibition of a child in the nude, according to court documents.

Quinn was initially indicted in April and pleaded not guilty to all charges in June, according to court documents.

Following his initial plea, he was released with an ankle monitor on the conditions that he reside with a family member, not contact the victim, the victim’s mother, or anyone under 17, and have no internet access, according to court documents.

On Wednesday, Quinn accepted a plea deal and changed his pleas to guilty on all charges, according to court documents.

He was subsequently sentenced to at least four years, but no more than five years in prison for possession of child pornography and photographing an unsuspecting nude person, court filings say. He was also sentenced to five years of probation for the remaining charges.
