佛蒙特州Rutland男子分发与持有儿童性虐待材料 被判89个月监禁
美国司法部佛蒙特区联邦检察官办公室11月9日公布，位于佛蒙特州 Rutland 县 Rutland 市的 Matthew Kielecki 现年45岁，已于11月6日被判处89个月联邦监禁，刑满后另须接受10年监管释放。Kielecki 此前已就分发与持有儿童性虐待材料认罪。
首席联邦地区法官 Christina Reiss 作出上述判决。Kielecki 于2026年7月7日认罪，罪名是分发与持有儿童性虐待材料。
法庭记录显示，2025年3月，Kielecki 向一个社交媒体消息平台上传了23份儿童性虐待材料文件，内容涉及对8岁以下至12岁以下儿童的性侵害。他还与其他对这类材料感兴趣的社交媒体用户联络，一次声称自己曾通过网络与一名12岁女孩制作这类材料，另一次则在对方表示不愿观看后仍劝对方观看。
2025年9月，执法人员持搜查令搜查 Kielecki 的住所，查获裸盖菇、处于不同生长阶段的30株大麻，以及20支枪支，其中2支已经上膛。其手机里的证据显示，他涉嫌违反联邦与州法律分发大麻；执法人员还在其手机中发现更多儿童性虐待材料，涉及一名未成年女孩。
第一助理联邦检察官 Jonathan A. Ophardt 对参与调查的机构表示肯定，参与机构包括国土安全调查局（HSI）、佛蒙特州网络儿童犯罪专责组、Rutland 市警察局、烟酒枪炮及爆炸物管理局（ATF）与缉毒局（DEA）。此案由助理联邦检察官 Corinne Smith 起诉，属于司法部2006年5月启动的全国性「安全童年计划」的一部分。

Rutland, Vermont Man Sentenced to 89 Months for Distributing and Possessing Child Sexual Abuse Material
A Rutland, Vermont, man has been sentenced to 89 months in federal prison for distributing and possessing child sexual abuse material, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the District of Vermont announced on November 9. Matthew Kielecki, 45, of Rutland, in Rutland County, Vermont, was sentenced on November 6 and will also serve a 10-year term of supervised release.
Chief United States District Judge Christina Reiss imposed the sentence. Kielecki had previously pleaded guilty, on July 7, 2026, to distribution and possession of child sexual abuse material.
According to court records, in March 2025 Kielecki uploaded 23 files containing child sexual abuse material to a social media messaging platform. The material depicted the sexual assaults of children ranging in age from younger than 8 years old to younger than 12 years old. He also communicated with other social media users interested in such material, in one case suggesting that he had produced such material over the internet with a 12-year-old girl, and in another encouraging another person to view it despite that person's stated reluctance.
When law enforcement executed a search warrant at Kielecki's home in September 2025, they recovered psilocybin mushrooms, 30 marijuana plants in various stages of growth, and 20 firearms, two of which were loaded. Evidence from his phone suggested that he was engaged in distributing marijuana in violation of both federal and state law, and officers also found additional child sexual abuse material on his cellphone.
First Assistant United States Attorney Jonathan A. Ophardt commended the investigative efforts of Homeland Security Investigations, the Vermont Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, the Rutland City Police Department, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives, and the Drug Enforcement Administration. Assistant United States Attorney Corinne Smith prosecuted the case, which was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched by the Department of Justice in May 2006.
