OKLAHOMA CITY – ANTHONY MICHAEL GRIMM, 42, of Oklahoma City, has been sentenced to serve 121 months in federal prison for possession of, and access with intent to view, child pornography, announced U.S. Attorney Robert J. Troester.
According to public records, in May 2024, agents with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) discovered Grimm had distributed multiple videos depicting child sexual abuse material (CSAM) to an individual in Michigan. HSI executed a search warrant of Grimm’s apartment and confiscated Grimm’s cell phone where numerous images and videos depicting CSAM were found.
On January 7, 2025, a federal Grand Jury charged Grimm with possession of, and access with intent to view, child pornography. Grimm pleaded guilty on March 31, 2025, and admitted he knowingly accessed a cell phone that contained images depicting CSAM.
At the sentencing hearing on July 23, 2025, U.S. District Judge Bernard M. Jones sentenced Grimm to serve 121 months in federal prison, followed by ten years of supervised release. In announcing his sentence, Judge Jones noted the need to deter Grimm and to protect the public from future crimes of Grimm.
This case is the result of an investigation by Homeland Security Investigations. Assistant U.S. Attorney Tiffany Edgmon prosecuted the case.
This case is part of Project Safe Childhood (PSC), a nationwide initiative by the Department of Justice (DOJ) to combat child sexual exploitation and abuse. Led by U.S. Attorney’s Offices and the DOJ Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, PSC 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.
