Christopher Blake Dezutter, 54, was sentenced Friday, Aug. 27, 2021, in Olmsted County District Court by Judge Pamela King to consecutive prison sentences of 41 months and 12 months and a day.
Dezutter, who has multiple previous convictions for child pornography, was on probation and as part of his condition of probation had a monitoring app placed on his cellphone. On Dec. 14, 2020, a woman was notified by the monitoring system that there were pornographic images on Dezutter s phone, according to the criminal complaint.
When interviewed by law enforcement, Dezutter told an investigator he relapsed and only looked at child pornography one time and it was an estimated less than 12 images. Court records indicate that the monitoring system on his phone sometimes blocked the images, the amended criminal complaint states. Law enforcement found at least seven of images of child pornography, the complaint states.
