The Department of Homeland Security is now responsible for putting a disturbing pedophile in prison for 25 years after law enforcement agencies say he took child pornographic images and videos of his teenage fiancé in north Georgia.
28-year-old Shawn Ryan Budovic became subject to an investigation by the Department of Homeland Security last year after authorities say he would use the application Kik Messenger to lure child victims and sexually exploit them.

Budovic was engaged to a child that he met using the application, who was a young teenager at the time they began dating, and he groomed her for years into believing that a relationship with an adult male was normal.
At the time of the two meeting, Budovic was 20, and the child was eleven, where they continued an online and eventual personal relationship only for Budovic to later propose and become engaged to the girl at the age of 17.
That 17-year-old child carried out a relationship with Budovic for several years prior to their engagement, which prosecutors have acknowledged began before she was of the age of consent.
Throughout the years, Budovic would send the girls images and videos of child pornography in an attempt to indoctrinate her young mind, prosecutors say.
However, authorities say that as a child sexual predator, Budovic also targeted her younger siblings.
The fiancé of Budovic had three sisters, one is only three years of age, one is four, and the other 9-years-old, which Budovic then asked his child lover to send him pornographic images of.
This perverse animal was attracted to children who should are just growing out of diapers, further underscoring the dangerous problem we have in America with pedophilia, and the reality of “PedoGate,” a worldwide epidemic of predators.
After succumbing to pressure from Budovic, the girl complied with her fiancé and sent him multiple videos and images of her younger sisters engaged in child pornographic depictions.
Both the Department of Homeland Security and the Homeland Security Investigations division were later tipped off about transmissions of illicit child pornography depicting prepubescent children at an IP address that was traced back to Budovic’s home, resulting in the federal agencies seeking a search warrant for his home at 189 McKaskey Creek Road in Cartersville, Georgia.

Upon executing a search warrant a Budovic’s residence, law enforcement discovered a collection of thousands of images and videos of prepubescent girls being forcefully raped and abused, and a history of preying on children across various internet platforms and websites such as Skype, and Facebook.
As part of the investigation, authorities examined the electronic devices used by Budovic to discover hundreds of chat logs with girls as young as 12, where Budovic would entice them to send him sexually explicit photographs and videos.
Several times, Budovic sent those children images of his own genitals and proceeded to engage in cybersexual relationships with the children.
“The defendant used the internet to hunt and sexually exploit young children for his own sexual gratification,” said US Attorney Byung J. “BJ” Pak. “While Budovic will now serve a lengthy prison sentence for his crimes, this is also a reminder to parents of the dangers children may encounter on the internet, as well as an alert to tactics predators use to lure, manipulate and prey on their victims.”
“Individuals responsible for producing child pornography steal the innocence of children and further their revictimization each time the evidence of that exploitation is shared online,” said Homeland Security Investigations Atlanta Special Agent in Charge Nick S. Annan. “This case shows HSI investigators are actively working to identify and disrupt the trade of these illegal images, and also to identify and seek prosecution of the criminals who produce and possess them.”
Budovic was arrested for four felony counts of Sexual Exploitation of Children, and one felony count of Computer Pornography and Child Exploitation Prevention, and was booked into the Bartow County Jail where he sat awaiting trial for nearly nine months.
On Friday, Budovic was sentenced to 25 years in federal prison by a US District Court, after the case was prosecuted by US Attorney Byung J. “BJ” Pak and Assistant U.S. Attorney Jolee Porter.

Justice was served in this case, albeit each of the child victims of Budovic will never regain their lost innocence, and as per the suffering at the hands of the disturbing pedophile will likely endure years of therapy in an attempt to regain control of their lives.
There is no winning solution for the victims of child sexual predators, as they will forever remain victims.
Upon release from his 25-year sentence, Budovic will be required to register as a child sex offender for the remainder of his life, as well as be on supervised release.
The case was given oversight by the Department of Justice Operation Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative designed to protect children from online exploitation and abuse.

As part of a similar program, Operation Broken Heart, the DOJ announced the arrest of 2,300 pedophiles and child pornographers in June of 2018.
United States Attorney’s Offices around the country participate in Project Safe Childhood, including the US Marshals services, federal, state and local law enforcement agencies; all of whom share their resources in order to apprehend and prosecute individuals who exploit children.
For more information about Project Safe Childhood, please visit www.projectsafechildhood.gov where there are countless resources available for either reporting pedophiles or assisting victims.
Members of the public who have information about pedophiles or child sexual predators are also urged to contact ICE’s Operation Predator, by calling the ICE tip line at 1-866-347-2423 or internationally at 001-1802-872-6199.
<a href="https://www.ice.gov/webform/hsi-tip-form">They can also submit a tip over the internet by completing ICE’s online form by clicking here.</a>
We would also urge you to contact your elected officials and demand that all sexual exploitation or molestation of children be deemed as a federal offense punishable by the death penalty.
We need new legislation to ensure that this occurs, as well as removing the ability for child sexual predators to post a bond. No pedophile should be able to walk free if there is evidence to suggest they're responsible for a crime.
