Laurel Man Sentenced to 20 Years for Child Pornography

A Laurel man has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for producing child pornography. Frank Alan Klukosky, 43, secretly recorded a 13-year-old girl in a bathroom.

Chief U.S. District Judge Deborah K. Chasanow handed down the sentence, which was announced by United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Rod J. Rosenstein.

The investigation revealed that Klukosky drove to the victim’s home with an SD card containing at least 120 images and six videos of child pornography. He then helped the victim’s family member load the images and videos onto their computer and cell phone.

On October 23, 2012, the FBI executed a search warrant at Klukosky’s home and seized video cameras, key fob cameras, computers, an external hard drive, and other computer accessories. The external hard drive contained approximately 2,000 images and 16 videos of child pornography, including 11 videos depicting the 13-year-old girl in a bathroom.

The videos were taken with hidden key fob cameras and were recorded on at least 10 occasions. In one of the videos, Klukosky is recorded while setting up or taking down the camera.

The case was investigated by the FBI-led Maryland Child Exploitation Task Force (MCETF), which coordinates with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children and the Maryland State Police Child Recovery Unit to identify missing children being advertised online for prostitution.

This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched in May 2006 to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse.

United States Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein commended the FBI, the Laurel and Howard County Police Departments, and HHS-OIG for their work in the investigation. Mr. Rosenstein thanked Assistant U.S. Attorney Kristi O’Malley, who prosecuted the case.
