A 39-year-old Lincoln man is headed to prison after being sentenced for attempted production of child pornography. United States District Court Judge Susan Bazis sentenced Bryon Greco to 35 years behind bars and in in the federal system there is no parole.
United States Attorney Lesley A. Woods says in November 2024 an online moderator for a Minecraft server reported a tip to the FBI National Threat Operations Center that Greco was involved in the sexual exploitation of a minor child using Discord.
Investigators found that Greco began communicating with a minor child through the platform in 2023. She says Greco requested and encouraged the victim to take nude photos and videos of herself and send the sexually explicit content to Greco. Greco also sent sexually explicit images and videos of himself to the minor.
Greco is a convicted sex offender out of Gage County. This case was investigated by the FBI.
