David Timothy Deakin will spend his life in a Filipino prison after he was convicted of sexually exploiting children. He was using webcams to sell videos, photos, and live-streams to buyers abroad, according to the AP.

“The youngest victim ever, rescued a few weeks ago, was an infant, two months old. Most are under 12. “This should serve as a warning,” said NBI (the Philippine national investigation bureau) anti-human-trafficking chief Janet Francisco, who leads the case. “We will really catch them, with the help of our foreign counterparts. We will really put them in jail and they will die in jail.””, writes the AP as quoted by the SCMP (the South China Morning Post, a Hong Kong newspaper).

The agents found children’s underwear, toddler shoes, cameras, bondage cuffs, fetish ropes, meth pipes, and stacks of hard drives and photo albums in Deakin’s two-bedroom flat, still according to the AP.
