Upper Marlboro Man Gets 30 Years for Child Pornography
A 27-year-old Upper Marlboro man has been sentenced to 30 years in prison for producing and distributing child pornography.
Eugene Lewandowski, of Upper Marlboro, Maryland, was sentenced today to 30 years in prison followed by lifetime supervised release for sexual exploitation of a minor to produce child pornography and for transportation of child pornography, according to a statement from U.S. Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein.
The sentence was announced by Rosenstein; Special Agent in Charge William Winter of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement’s (ICE) Homeland Security Investigations (HSI); and Colonel Marcus L. Brown, Superintendent of the Maryland State Police.
According to information presented at Lewandowski’s sentencing hearing, Lewandowski took six videos of himself engaged in sexual acts with a sleeping five year old female, as well as additional videos of the child, including sexually explicit videos.
In addition, analysis of Lewandowski’s computers and other digital media revealed at least 14,000 images and videos documenting the sexual abuse of children. Lewandowski admitted using a file sharing program on his computer to distribute some of these images and videos.
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 HSI Baltimore and Maryland State Police Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force for their work in the investigation, and thanked Assistant U.S. Attorney Kristi N. O’Malley, who prosecuted the case.
Lewandowski must register as a sex offender in the place where he resides, where he is an employee, and where he is a student, under the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA).
