St Louis Man Sentenced to 9 Years for Possessing and Sharing Child Pornography
David John Dohrman, a 52-year-old man from Jefferson County, Missouri, has been sentenced to nine years in prison for possessing and sharing child pornography with his wife, Jacquelin Michelle Dohrman.
The sentence was handed down by U.S. District Judge Catherine D. Perry on Wednesday. Judge Perry also ordered Dohrman to pay $6,000 in restitution to victims who appeared in the images.
Jacquelin Dohrman, now 49, was sentenced to seven years in prison last month after pleading guilty to one count of possession of child pornography. The couple pleaded guilty in June to the same charge.
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 Dohrmans’ 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.
This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse launched in May 2006. Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to better locate, apprehend, and prosecute individuals who exploit children via the Internet, as well as to identify and rescue victims.
