Bradley was sentenced Thursday to 25 years in prison.

Court documents alleged Bradley coerced minors to engage in sexual activity that he recorded between 2015 and 2018, officials said.

“Bradley recorded himself in multiple videos sexually abusing a child under the age of 15,” officials said in the release. “Bradley admitted that the videos were created on different dates during a span of nearly three years.”

“While no amount of prison time can undo the devastating harm inflicted by the defendant, this significant sentencing assures that no additional children will be harmed by this defendant,” Special Agent in Charge Steve Francis said in the release.
