Morrow, who sentenced Sanchez, characterized his offense as ‘very serious.’ In a sentencing memorandum, prosecutors said that Sanchez, a 49-year-old Bronx, N.Y., resident, ‘had been regularly uploading pirated movies for four or five years, and did not appear remorseful after charges were brought.’In addition to the prison term, Judge Morrow imposed one year of supervised release, along with various computer restrictions.Sanchez was brought to justice as the result of an investigation by the Federal Bureau of Investigation.United States Attorney Andre Birotte Jr. said that Sanchez’s sentencing ‘sends a strong message of deterrence to would-be Internet pirates ... The Justice Department will pursue and prosecute persons who seek to steal the intellectual property of this nation.’
