David Dohrman, Child Pornography, Missouri 2023

A St. Louis man has been sentenced to nine years in prison for possessing and sharing child pornography with his wife.

David John Dohrman, 52, and his wife Jacquelin Michelle Dohrman, 49, pleaded guilty in June to one count of possession of child pornography.

According to court documents, David Dohrman admitted to searching for and downloading child pornography and sending a video containing child sexual abuse material to his wife on October 1, 2020.

The couple shared child pornography in chats and discussed a young girl they’d seen in a restaurant. The video they shared resulted in a tip from Facebook to the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children.

A St. Louis County Police Department detective then obtained a court-approved search warrant for the Dohrman’s home.

The St. Louis County Police Department, the Jefferson County Sheriff’s Office, and the FBI investigated the case.

Assistant U.S. Attorney Jillian Anderson is prosecuting the case under Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse.

U.S. District Judge Catherine D. Perry ordered David Dohrman to pay $6,000 in restitution to victims who appeared in the images.

Jacquelin Michelle Dohrman was sentenced to seven years in prison last month.
