A former Mocksville restaurant owner was sentenced to 14 years in federal prison.
Luigi Carciati, 49, was sentenced by Senior US District Judge Catherine C. Eagles on March 14. He will face 15 years of supervised probation after his release. Carciati was also ordered to pay $74,000 in restitution.
He was charged in October, 2023 of possessing child pornography, and Davie Sheriff’s investigators found two hidden cameras in the women’s bathroom at La Vita e Bella on Gaither Street. They found more evidence at his Whitney Road residence. Child pornography was found on multiple devices.
At the time of his arrest, Davie Sheriff J.D. Hartman said that investigators were trying to locate as many of the victims as possible. Some of those victims, or members of their family, spoke at the federal trial.
The case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative by the Department of Justice to combat online child sexual exploitation and abuse.
