Christian Maire, the mastermind of an international child exploitation ring, was killed and a second member of the ring injured after being stabbed in what is believed to be a targeted attack by fellow inmates at Milan federal prison. A federal inmate pleaded guilty Thursday to the slaying at the Milan Correctional Institution in 2019 of the leader of an international child exploitation ring, the Detroit U.S. Attorney’s office said.
Castro’s plea agreement calls for a sentence of up to life in prison, which could be imposed concurrently, partly concurrently or consecutively to a 42-year sentence he is serving for an underlying 2017 federal drug trafficking conviction, officials said Thursday. The three men met and discussed killing Maire before walking upstairs to Maire’s cell inside the detention center, prosecutors said. Maire, the 40-year-old computer graphics company founder from New York state, tried to flee, but he was caught and was kicked, stomped, stabbed 28 times and then thrown down a flight of metal stairs during an attack on Jan. 2, 2019.
Wright prevented corrections officers from intervening while Castro repeatedly stabbed Maire, according to court filings.
