Westchester County District Attorney Susan Cacace announced on June 10 that a Scarsdale man admitted to possessing and sharing child sexual abuse material during a court hearing yesterday.
Bora Secmen, 20, of Scarsdale, pleaded guilty before Judge Robert Prisco Tuesday to Promoting a Sexual Performance by a Child, a class D felony, and Possessing an Obscene Sexual Performance by a Child, a class E felony.
The defendant is scheduled to be sentenced on Sept. 8, where he is expected to receive a sentence of 10 years’ probation, sex offender registration and additional fines.
DA Cacace said: “There is little more heinous than crimes committed against children, especially those involving sexual exploitation and abuse. Sharing the evidence of those crimes with others revictimizes the young children who have already been taken advantage of and perpetuates the underlying abuse. My administration works tirelessly to detect and prosecute the sharing of child sexual abuse material, and yesterday’s plea is the latest example of our work to hold these offenders accountable.”
On or about July 25, 2025, the defendant possessed an image depicting child sexual abuse captioned with the text: “You did it… You went lower and lower… There’s nowhere else to go from here… Ultimate Pedo,” according to a felony complaint filed in the case.
Earlier that month, the defendant had shared another digital file depicting child sexual abuse through the X/Twitter platform.
This case was investigated by the Westchester County District Attorney’s High Technology Crime Unit in conjunction with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and the New York State Crimes Against Children Task Force. The case is being prosecuted by Cyber Crimes Bureau Chief Michael Delohery.
