DULUTH, Minn. & MINNEAPOLIS, Minn. – John David Degelau, 28, has been sentenced to 6.5 years in prison followed by 10 years of supervised release.
He was found guilty on federal charges of Possession of Child Pornography.
Degelau, a former youth ski coach, created child pornography by imposing the faces of children he coached onto the bodies of child pornography victims.
Acting U.S. Attorney Joseph H. Thompson said, “A ski coach who used photos of children he coached to create child pornography is now headed to federal prison… Today alone, three child predators were sentenced in federal court for absolutely abhorrent conduct. This epidemic of abuse we are seeing in Minnesota is vile, it is devastating, and it must end.”
