OKLAHOMA CITY — An OKC metro man who lives in Warr Acres has been sentenced to 10 years in federal prison after pleading guilty to possession of and access with intent to view material containing child pornography (CSAM).
The announcement was made Wednesday by U.S. Attorney Robert J. Troester.
Brendon Shea Cooper, 38, was sentenced Tuesday by U.S. District Judge Charles Goodwin, who also ordered Cooper to serve 10 years of supervised release following his prison term.
Judge Goodwin cited the seriousness of the offense and the need to deter future crimes in handing down the sentence.
According to public records, the FBI began investigating in the summer of 2024 after identifying an Internet Protocol (IP) address suspected of making child sexual abuse material available through a file-sharing website.
The investigation led agents to a Warr Acres residence, where they traced the activity to a cellphone owned by Cooper. Investigators located files depicting child sexual abuse material on the device.
A federal grand jury indicted Cooper on Oct. 15, 2024. He pleaded guilty on June 12, 2025, admitting he possessed images on his phone that included material depicting prepubescent children.
The case was investigated by the FBI Oklahoma City Field Office, with assistance from the Warr Acres Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorney Tiffany Edgmon prosecuted the case.
