A Bucks County, Pa., man has been sentenced to just shy of two years in prison followed by two years of probation after pleading guilty to multiple felony charges.

Before sentencing, the mother of a 13-year-old victim delivered an emotional impact statement, detailing the lasting trauma on her family. She explained that her daughter now lives in a constant of fear and she is afraid to be alone. Magill pleaded guilty to felony counts of sexual abuse of children, possession of child abuse material, unlawful contact with a minor, dissemination of explicit sexual material to a minor, unlawful contact with a minor – obscene performances, and criminal use of a communication facility.

Through the investigation, detectives found that Magill posed as a teenager under the username “instantclassic9” on the social platforms. Magill asked the young girl for sexually explicit photos and made inappropriate comments to her on the platforms. While going through Magill’s cell phone, detectives found a deleted message thread between him and a 16-year-old girl from North Carolina. There were nearly 3,000 messages between the two including instances where Magill forced the girl to send him sexual photos and videos. Magill also sent the girl an inappropriate photo of himself to the girl. According to a criminal complaint, Magill admitted to detectives in February of 2025 that he pretended to be a teen online and asked several minors for sexually explicit images while communicating with them.
