A former Department of Energy employee pleaded guilty Thursday to a 17-year scheme of secretly filming and sexually exploiting minors in his Woodbridge home.
Beginning at least as early as March 2008, Jackson Quentin Crocker, 54, of Woodbridge, used hidden cameras to secretly record minors in the bathroom of his home, the United States Attorney’s Office in Alexandria said in a news release.
Crocker was arrested in October at his home by a joint federal and local task force and originally charged with possession of child pornography.
“Between 2008 and 2025, Crocker created thousands of these videos, many of which show minors removing their clothing, using the toilet, and showering,” the release said.
Crocker also created multiple videos of himself engaged in sexually explicit conduct next to sleeping children at his house.
In addition to the hidden camera videos he created, Crocker also used the Internet to collect thousands of images and videos depicting minors, some of whom are prepubescent, engaged in sexually explicit conduct.
Crocker is scheduled to be sentenced on Dec. 2. He faces a mandatory minimum of 15 years and up to 50 years in prison.
Assistant U.S. Attorneys Lauren Halper and Jacob Mercer are prosecuting the case.
This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse.
