Jefferson Co., Mo. (KFMO) - 26-year-old Dylan James, of Jefferson County, has been sentenced to 210 months in federal prison for child pornography offenses involving three teenagers.

According to court documents, James recorded a sexual act with a 13-year-old in 2024 and later distributed the recording. He also provided alcohol and “possibly some vapes” in exchange for sexually explicit images from a 15-year-old. In addition, James paid a 16-year-old to produce sexually explicit videos in 2023.

James pleaded guilty in August to one count of production of child pornography and one count of distribution of child pornography.
