Louisiana Man Sentenced to Five Years for Distributing Child Pornography
LAFAYETTE, La. — U.S. District Judge David C. Joseph on November 10 sentenced Michael Church, 36, of Broussard, Louisiana, to 60 months in federal prison for distribution of child pornography, followed by five years of supervised release, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Western District of Louisiana announced. Church had pleaded guilty on August 7, 2026.
According to court documents, in June 2025, Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI) agents conducting a multi-state investigation into the production, possession and distribution of child sexual abuse material identified a Telegram group chat in which a user shared an image of a child. FBI agents traced the account to Church.
On October 28, 2025, FBI agents executed a search warrant at Church's residence in Broussard. Church admitted operating the Telegram account and admitted that he sent the image to the group chat in November 2024. He was arrested on October 29, 2025.
U.S. Attorney Zachary A. Keller for the Western District of Louisiana made the announcement. The FBI investigated the case, which was prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Craig Bordelon under case number 6:25-CR-00314-01.
The Justice Department said the case was prosecuted as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched by the department in May 2006 to combat the exploitation of children through the internet and to identify and rescue victims.
