52-YEAR-OLD MAN SENTENCED TO NEARLY 20 YEARS IN FEDERAL PRISON “Minor” Was an Adult Working With Citizen Group “Perverted Justice” DALLAS — Hussain Kamal, 52, of Reynoldsburg, Ohio, was sentenced today by Chief U.S. District Judge Sidney A. Fitzwater to 235 months in federal prison and a lifetime of supervised. Kamal was convicted at trial in February on one count of enticement of a minor and one count of traveling with intent to engage in a sexual act with a minor. The announcement was made today by U.S. Attorney James T. Jacks of the Northern District of Texas. Eventually, Kamal and the girl agreed that on July 5, 2008, he would come to Greenville, Texas, (on his way back to New Braunfels, Texas, from Ohio) and meet her at a local movie theater. Kamal didn’t know that she had contacted the Greenville Police Department about him and had forwarded them their chat logs, along with information about the date and time of their meeting. As scheduled, on July 5, 2008, Kamal arrived at the movie theater and officers with the Greenville Police Department were waiting for him. Kamal was arrested and, in his car, officers found receipts documenting his travel from Ohio to Texas, a laptop computer, external hard drive, condoms, Viagra, a digital camera and a Dale Ernhardt teddy bear. A forensic analysis of Kamal’s computer equipment contained images of pornography (not confirmed child pornography) and Yahoo! chats, with others, including an individual claiming to be a 16-year-old girl. The case was investigated by the Greenville Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorneys Lisa J. Miller and Camille Sparks prosecuted. ###
