ST. GEORGE, Utah – Jaycee Stewart, a 33-year-old resident of St. George, has been sentenced to 300 months in federal prison following his conviction for receiving child sexual abuse materials (CSAM).
The sentence, handed down by U.S. District Court Judge Ann Marie McIff Allen, was imposed after Stewart pleaded guilty on November 4, 2024.
Stewart’s arrest stemmed from a harrowing disclosure made by a young victim to their schoolteacher in April 2023. The child revealed that Stewart had sexually abused them and maintained a collection of inappropriate images in his home.
A subsequent search warrant executed at Stewart’s residence uncovered tens of thousands of files depicting child sex abuse, including photographs and digital frames displaying approximately 22,000 images.
Stewart has a sordid history with the law, having been previously convicted of possession of child pornography in Utah state court in 2015. He is currently awaiting sentencing on additional charges of sexually abusing two victims in state court.
This case was investigated by the St. George Police Department and prosecuted by Assistant United States Attorney Christopher Burton. It was brought under Project Safe Childhood, a federal initiative aimed at combating child sexual exploitation and abuse.
