A twisted Florida pharmacist will spend the rest of his life behind bars for raping and trafficking dozens of young girls — as young as 10 — during repeated trips to Colombia, according to federal prosecutors.
Stefan Andres Correa, 42, was handed the life sentence Friday after authorities discovered more than 100 disturbing videos of him sexually abusing over 50 children stored across nine cell phones, the US Attorney’s Office for the Southern District of Florida announced.
Prosecutors said the Miami predator preyed on girls between the ages of 10 and 17.
“This prosecution and this sentence should serve as a warning to any predator who is trying to travel through our District to prey on children,” US Attorney Hayden P. O’Byrne said in a statement.
“We will find you and prosecute you to the fullest extent of the law. A life sentence for this conduct is entirely appropriate. Predators such as Correa are a scourge upon humanity, and must be dealt with accordingly.”
The sicko was trying to board a Bogota-bound flight from Miami International Airport last April when the feds grabbed him on the jet bridge and searched his bags — uncovering his stash of cell phones.
Prosecutors said one phone contained a text exchange in which Correa offered a Colombian trafficker $75 to set up sickening sex sessions with children between 10 to 12 years old.
“If she behaves, and takes good care of me, you can keep bringing her and you’ll each get [$75],” the pharma creep wrote in one message, also offering to reward the girl with an Apple iPhone, according to court documents obtained by the Miami Herald
The depraved druggist told investigators he made roughly 45 trips to the South American country to exploit his victims, records showed.
Correa pleaded guilty to attempted sex trafficking of a minor and production of child sexual exploitation material in March.
“To the brave survivors, your courage was the driving force in this case, and I hope that the life sentence of this predator brings you some measure of justice and relief,” said Jose R. Figueroa, Special Agent in Charge of Homeland Security Investigations in Miami.
“This investigation underscores the global and horrific nature of child sex trafficking and the importance of international cooperation to end it.”
