Ecorse man sentenced to 10 years for child sexual exploitation

Mark-Anthony Markiewicz, 29, of Ecorse, has been sentenced to ten years in prison for sexually exploiting several children online.

Markiewicz pleaded guilty on June 5, 2024 to three counts of coercion and enticement of a minor.

Court documents revealed that the exploitation of the 29-year-old man involved three separate victims between the ages of 14 and 16 after they came across Markiewicz online.

For at least two years, while posing as 16 years old, Markiewicz engaged in sexually explicit chats on Snapchat with the minor victims and numerous other children between the ages of 13 and 16.

In exchange for payment, Markiewicz also requested nude photos and videos of the minors and threatened to send nude photos of one victim to her employer and family.
