District Attorney Dan Dow announced that Jason Robert Porter (49) has been sentenced to 280 years to life plus 5 years for his conviction on 16 felony counts, including multiple sex offenses against four child victims and possession of child pornography.

On June 2, 2021, a judge, found Porter guilty of the charges after Porter waived his right to a jury trial and the judge heard the matter.

The judge considered evidence that between February 2008 and June 2016 Porter sexually abused four girl victims between the ages of 1 and 13 and videotaped 36 victims without their knowledge.

The parents of the young victims addressed the court and the defendant describing the painful impact of Porter’s criminal conduct.

“We sincerely applaud the courage of these young survivors in reporting the abuse, and the parents of the survivors who appeared in court today to confront the defendant and express the real impact of his terrible crimes,” said District Attorney Dan Dow“.

This case was prosecuted by Deputy District Attorney Melissa Chabra, who is assigned to the Sexual Abuse and Child Abuse Unit of the District Attorney’s Office.

“I am pleased that after five long years I was able to be part of the team to finally bring justice to all the survivors involved.”

“The bravery of the young victim as she testifies in court in front of her abuser inspires me to continue my work on these cases and fight for justice for all survivors of sexual abuse in our county,” said Deputy District Attorney Melissa Chabra.
