DAVENPORT, Iowa - A Washington County man was sentenced on Wednesday, July 17, 2024, to 240 months in federal prison for producing child pornography.

According to public court documents, witnesses notified the Washington County Sheriff's Office that Trevor Devon Miller, 23, produced a video of himself with a minor female engaged in sexual activity. That video was sent by Miller via Snapchat to other minors. Investigators recovered a copy of the video and confronted Miller who admitted he produced and distributed the video. Investigators also discovered that Miller had produced a similar video with another minor female.

After completing his term of imprisonment, Miller will be required to serve 10 years of supervised release. There is no parole in the federal system. Miller will be required to register as a sex offender.

United States Attorney Richard D. Westphal of the Southern District of Iowa made the announcement. This case was investigated by the Washington County Sheriff's Office and the Federal Bureau of Investigation.

This case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice. Led by U.S. Attorneys' Offices and the Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to better locate, apprehend and prosecute individuals who exploit children via the Internet, as well as to identify and rescue victims.
