Quick Glance: Convicted Sex Offender Receives Lengthy Prison Term
- A man sentenced to 220 years in federal prison for producing child sexual abuse material and hacking the jumbotron at the Jacksonville Jaguars stadium after his dismissal due to being a registered sex offender.
- Samuel Arthur Thompson from St. Augustine received his sentence from a federal judge in Jacksonville. Convicted in November for various offenses, including producing and possessing sexual images of children, violating the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act, sending unauthorized damaging commands to a protected computer, and possessing a firearm as a convicted felon.
- Thompson, aged 53, was apprehended in early 2020 after repatriation from the Philippines to the U.S. He had fled to the Southeast Asian country six months earlier following an FBI search and computer seizure at his residence.
- The Jaguars enlisted Thompson as a contractor in 2013 for their video board network design and later for jumbotron operations on game days. Upon learning of his conviction as a sex offender, the team chose not to extend his contract.
