Thursday, November 12, 2026 · Justice · GSM News

The U.S. Attorney's Office for the Southern District of Ohio announced on November 12 that Christopher Creamer, 40, of Urbana, Ohio, was sentenced in U.S. District Court to 180 months (15 years) in prison, followed by a 15-year term of supervised release, for distributing child pornography. Senior U.S. District Judge Thomas M. Rose imposed the sentence, which was announced by Dominick S. Gerace II, United States Attorney for the Southern District of Ohio, and Jason Cromartie, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI's Cincinnati Division.

According to court documents, from June to August 2025, Creamer communicated online with an individual he believed to be a Telegram user but who was actually an FBI agent. Creamer distributed two images and 16 videos of child pornography to the agent and also discussed his interest in the sexual abuse of children.

In a subsequent search of Creamer's electronic devices, agents discovered more than 3,000 images and 130 videos depicting child pornography, including images of the sexual abuse of infants and toddlers. Creamer further admitted that he previously sexually abused a 14-year-old victim.

Creamer was arrested and charged by federal criminal complaint in March and pleaded guilty in July. Assistant United States Attorney Christina E. Mahy is representing the United States in this case.

This case is part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative launched by the Department of Justice in May 2006 to combat child sexual exploitation and abuse, marshaling federal, state and local resources to locate, apprehend and prosecute individuals who exploit children via the internet and to identify and rescue victims.
