SAN ANTONIO (KTSA News) — It will be 20 years in prison for a San Antonio man convicted of sexually exploiting children.

Tanner Real, 22, will also have to pay $100,000 in restitution to his victims.

According to court documents, Real extorted 10 minor victims into producing sexually explicit material for him. In addition to his prison sentence, Real was sentenced to 20 years of supervised release.

“The sexual exploitation of children is a horrendous crime,” said U.S. Attorney Jaime Esparza of the Western District of Texas. “Our office, along with our law enforcement partners, will continue to do everything in our power to obtain justice for these victims.”

The Boerne Police Department investigated the case with the assistance of the FBI.
