Former Minnesota State Trooper Sentenced to 27 Years in Prison for Producing, Distributing Child Sex Abuse Material
Federal prosecutors said Jeremy Plonski admitted sending four or five videos and received 27 years in prison plus 15 years of supervised release.
- On Tuesday, U.S. District Judge Kate M. Menendez sentenced former Minnesota State Patrol Trooper Jeremy Francis Plonski to 27 years in prison for producing and distributing child sexual abuse material.
- Plonski, who joined the agency in 2022, produced 23 videos between April and October 2023, often wearing his uniform while sexually assaulting an infant, court documents reveal.
- U.S. Attorney Daniel N. Rosen stated the sentence reflects his office's commitment to protecting children. "This defendant took an oath to protect the public," Rosen said, "but he instead committed one of the most abhorrent offenses imaginable."
- Minnesota State Patrol Colonel Christina Bogojevic confirmed Plonski's termination, stating, "Protecting the vulnerable is our duty." He remains under indictment in Scott County District Court for first-degree criminal sexual conduct.
- Authorities noted the case underscores the disturbing nature of crimes involving law enforcement. Victims can contact Minnesota Day One hotline at 223-1111 or text 399-9995 for support.
