Attorney General Mark Brnovich says 28-year old Jay McFarland of Cottonwood was sentenced to 12-years in prison for Sexual Exploitation of a Minor. McFarland was also sentenced to a consecutive term of lifetime probation and will be required to register as a sex offender. McFarland was identified when the internet data storage company Dropbox reported in September 2017 that a customer had uploaded child pornography to its servers. Investigators identified McFarland as the customer and executed a search warrant at his home in February of 2018. McFarland pleaded guilty to possessing images of child pornography on a phone he surrendered to investigators at the time of his arrest.
