Omaha Man Sentenced to 600 Months for Producing and Possessing Child Pornography
An Omaha man was sentenced in federal court in Omaha on November 4 to a total of 600 months in prison, or 50 years, for production of child pornography and possession of child pornography.
United States Attorney Lesley A. Woods announced that Justin A. Dueling, 42, of Omaha, in Douglas County, Nebraska, was sentenced by Chief United States District Judge Brian C. Buescher. There is no parole in the federal system. After Dueling's release from prison, he will begin a 15-year term of supervised release.
The case began on February 2, 2025, when the Nebraska State Patrol began investigating after the chat application Kik reported that a user in Nebraska had uploaded apparent child pornography on its platform. In November 2025, the State Patrol executed a search warrant at Dueling's Omaha residence and seized several electronic devices. Investigators said Dueling admitted to sending and receiving mass quantities of child pornography online.
Investigators examined Dueling's electronic devices and located several thousand images and videos of child sexual abuse material. They identified a child depicted in some of the videos and images and determined that Dueling had produced those videos and images. After Dueling's arrest, he was found to be in possession of a cell phone and two thumb drives, and investigators located approximately 1,650 more images of child sexual abuse material on those devices, including images of the same identified child.
The case was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched by the Department of Justice in May 2006 to combat child sexual exploitation and abuse, led by United States Attorney's Offices and the Criminal Division's Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section. The case was investigated by the Nebraska State Patrol and Homeland Security Investigations (HSI).
