TKANSAS CITY, KAN. – A Lansing, Kan., man has been sentenced to 15 years in federal prison for producing child pornography, U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom said today.

Douglas M. Schuler, 39, Lansing, Kan., pleaded guilty to one count of producing child pornography. In his plea, he admitted the investigation began in 2010 when a high school girl reported to a school counselor that Schuler was making unwanted sexual advances toward her. When investigators searched Schuler’s laptop computer, they found pornographic photographs of the girl, who was a minor.

Grissom commended the Lansing Police Department, the FBI and Assistant U.S. Attorney Kim Martin for their work on the case. This case was prosecuted under the Justice Department’s Project Safe Childhood. For more information, see www.justice.gov/psc
