SEATTLE, Wash. — An ICE Homeland Security Investigations Seattle and Klickitat County Sheriff’s Department investigation led to a 27-year prison sentence and lifetime supervised release for a Goldendale man who pleaded guilty to two counts of enticement and attempted enticement of a child and one count of possession of child sexual abuse images.
“Corbett Lloyd Craig, a 42-year-old man, used social media between early 2022 and his arrest in June 2025 to coerce two girls into providing him with sexually explicit videos and images,” said acting ICE Director David J. Venturella. “He enticed one of the children by offering her money via gift cards and online payments. This is an adult who knew the girls were just kids — but he still intended to elicit sexual material from them. I’m incredibly proud of the Homeland Security Investigations special agents who invested their time and effort into this case to bring some measure of justice to these young girls and their families.”
A judge handed down his sentence June 26.
“Mr. Craig was fully aware that his actions were not just extremely immoral, but illegal as well,” said acting HSI Seattle Special Agent in Charge April Miller. “This sentence will keep this predator off the streets and keep our children safer. HSI will continue to investigate these crimes against children. We owe our communities nothing less.”
Based on the investigation, law enforcement officers executed a search warrant at Craig’s home and discovered thousands of additional files of child sex abuse material.
As noted by District Court Judge Mary Katherine Dimke, Craig’s history of engaging in the same and similar conduct is what makes this case even more aggravated and supports his substantial sentence. In 2017, Craig was convicted of encouraging child abuse in the second degree, sexual abuse in the third degree, and contributing to the sexual delinquency of a child in Clackamas County Superior Court, Oregon. Federal investigators found child abuse images from his previous case and a child he personally victimized on his computer.
HSI Seattle investigated this case with assistance from the Klickitat County Sheriff’s Department. It was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Michael Murphy.
