            Montgomery, Alabama – On January 25, 2023, John Hason Bright, 52, was sentenced to 40 years in prison for the sexual exploitation of a child and receipt of child pornography. Previously, on December 4, 2022, co-defendant Tiffany Diane Hughes, 34, received a 20-year sentence for the sexual exploitation of a child. Bright and Hughes are both residents of Ozark, Alabama.

            In addition to their lengthy prison sentences, the judge ordered Bright and Hughes to serve five years on supervised release. Bright and Hughes are also required to register as a sex offender. There is no parole in the federal system.

U.S. Attorney Stewart also expresses her gratitude to each of the numerous law enforcement agents and investigators involved in bringing them both to justice.
