Syracuse, NY — A teacher’s aide at All Saints Elementary School in Syracuse quietly admitted today that she exploited two young girls — one less than a year old — for child pornography at her home and at the school.
Emily Oberst, 24, pleaded guilty to conspiracy and child porn charges in federal court today in exchange for a promised sentence of 60 years in prison. There is no parole in federal prison, so she will not be released early.
Oberst’s voice ranged from quiet to quivering during her half-hour plea proceeding.
Oberst is the second to plead guilty in the child porn case. Her boyfriend, Jason Kopp, 41, pleaded guilty last year and was sentenced to 235 years in prison.
