HAMMOND –Alan Piwowar, 34, of Highland, Indiana was
sentenced today by U.S. District Court Judge Joseph S. Van Bokkelen after
pleading guilty to production and possession of child pornography, announced
U.S. Attorney Kirsch.
Piwowar was sentenced to serve a total of 360 months in
prison, 15 years of supervised release and ordered to pay $50,000 in
restitution.
According to his plea agreement, in October 2008, Piwowar
knowingly caused a 2-year-old child in his custody, care, or supervisory
control to engage in sexually explicit conduct and took photographs. Piwowar
admitted that he touched the child with the intent to sexually arouse or
gratify himself. In April 2018, Piwowar also possessed depictions of other
minors under the age of 18 being caused to engage in sexually explicit acts
with adults. After learning he was under investigation for child pornography
offenses, Piwowar sought to destroy evidence of his crimes.
This case was investigated by the Federal Bureau of
Investigation. The case was handled by Assistant U.S. Attorney Jill R. Koster.
