A Brooklyn Catholic church basketball commissioner was arrested on Thursday after allegedly paying teenage boys to preform on pornographic videos, according to federal authorities.
Michael Jafferakos, who worked for Our Lady of Grace Gravesend Athletic Association, was arrested by Homeland Security agents at his home in Brooklyn where agents seized at least nine electronic devices, one of which had hundreds of images and videos containing child sexual abuse material that he then sold to another individual named "Tony" over Telegram, according to the federal criminal complaint.
Jafferakos told federal authorities that he had instructed a 14-year-old boy to engage in sexually explicit conduct during the week of Sept. 22 after "Tony" saw the boy's image on the program's Instagram account, t
