Attorney General James Uthmeier Delivers 60-Year Prison Sentence to Convicted Predator for Christmas

FORT MYERS, Fla.—Attorney General James Uthmeier announced that the Office of Statewide Prosecution secured a 60-year prison sentence for Phuc Minh Tran, 38, of Lehigh Acres, after he was convicted on 40 counts of child pornography possession.

“Instead of getting coal in his stocking, this child predator will spend his next 60 Christmases behind bars,” said Attorney General James Uthmeier. “Justice was delivered with this sentence. I thank Assistant Statewide Prosecutor Agnieszka Thomas and Deputy Statewide Prosecutor Julie Chaikin for putting this predator where he belongs.”

Tran was convicted on 40 counts of possession of child pornography in November 2025. He will serve his sentence in the Florida Department of Corrections.
