69. Feds: NSB man gets 12 years in prison for kiddie porn

Fredrick BardellResignation shows on the face of 45-year-old Fredrick Bardell of New Smyrna Beach, in his June 20 booking mug before beginning a lengthy prison sentence for downloading and hoarding more than 20,000 photos and movies of small children engaged in lewd sex acts. 

NEW SMYRNA BEACH -- Fredrick Bardell, who served in the U.S. Coast Guard, is now serving time in prison for downloading and hoarding 16,500 photos and more than 400 movies involving pre-adolescent children, the US Attorney's Office said.

The 45-year-old New Smyrna Beach man had been collecting the kiddie porn for two decades and even shared the content with others online.

Judge Roy Dalton, Jr. sentenced Bardell in June to a dozen years in prison, followed by 20 years of sexual offender probation. Bardell's sentencing comes in at No. 69 in Headline Surfer's countdown of the top 100 local stories of 2012.

Bardell, who pleaded guilty in March before the federal judge in Orlando to the child porn charges, will also have to register as a sex offender when he's released from prison.

Bardell was nabbed in December 2011 and before copping his plea, confessed to purchasing yet another computer where he downloaded even more porn involving young children engaged in sex acts.
