判10年监禁加20年监管：缅因州 Kingfield 女子 Anna LaRochelle 持儿童色情被判刑，2016年曾因性接触儿童定罪
美国司法部缅因区联邦检察官办公室宣布，缅因州 Kingfield 女子 Anna LaRochelle 因持有儿童色情制品，被判处 10 年监禁，刑满后还要接受 20 年监管释放。
联邦地区法官 Stacey D. Neumann 在 Bangor 的联邦法院判处了这项刑罚。LaRochelle 现年 36 岁，已于 2026 年 4 月 15 日认罪。
据法庭记录，调查人员 2024 年 5 月执行搜查令时，在 LaRochelle 的手机里发现了一名幼儿的儿童色情影像。
检方指出，LaRochelle 2016 年曾因与一名儿童进行非法性接触被定罪，因此依法适用加重刑罚。
国土安全调查局（HSI）新英格兰区代理特别探员主管 Jeffrey Grimming 表示，LaRochelle 在已有性虐待定罪并处于法院监管之下时，仍被发现持有涉及一名年幼儿童的性剥削照片，显示其对儿童构成持续危险，今天的判决使她入狱、远离易受伤害的儿童。
此案由国土安全调查局与缅因州警察局重大案件组下属的特别受害者部门调查，是司法部 2006 年 5 月启动的全国性「儿童安全项目」（Project Safe Childhood）的一部分。
司法部在公告中公布了举报渠道：涉及儿童色情制品的持有、传播、接收或制作，可通过全国失踪与受剥削儿童中心网络举报热线 CyberTipline 举报页面 举报，或拨打 1-800-843-5678；在缅因州遭遇性侵犯或性虐待的人，可拨打全州免费保密热线 1-800-871-7741 求助。
10 Years in Prison Plus 20 Years of Supervision: Maine Woman Anna LaRochelle Sentenced for Possessing Child Pornography, With a 2016 Prior Conviction
The U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Maine announced that Anna LaRochelle, of Kingfield, Maine, was sentenced to 10 years in prison for possessing child pornography, to be followed by 20 years of supervised release.
U.S. District Judge Stacey D. Neumann imposed the sentence in federal court in Bangor. LaRochelle, 36, pleaded guilty on April 15, 2026.
According to court records, investigators conducting a search warrant in May 2024 found child pornography depicting a toddler on LaRochelle's phone.
Prosecutors noted that LaRochelle had a previous conviction in 2016 for unlawful sexual contact with a child, and was therefore subject to an enhanced sentence under federal law.
Jeffrey Grimming, acting special agent in charge of Homeland Security Investigations in New England, said LaRochelle had been found with sexually exploitative photos of a very young child despite the previous conviction and court-ordered supervision, and that the sentence puts her behind bars and far away from vulnerable children.
Homeland Security Investigations and the Maine State Police Major Crimes Unit - Special Victims investigated the case, which was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, the nationwide initiative launched by the Department of Justice in May 2006.
The Justice Department listed reporting channels in its announcement: incidents involving child pornography can be reported through the National Center for Missing & Exploited Children's CyberTipline or by calling 1-800-843-5678, and people in Maine who have been sexually assaulted or abused can call the free, confidential statewide helpline at 1-800-871-7741.
