RACINE — A 25-year-old Racine man was sentenced to nine years in prison Tuesday after child pornography reportedly was found on his cell phone.
Dakota Newburg was charged with 12 counts of possession of child pornography. He pleaded guilty to four counts. The remaining eight counts were dismissed but read into the court record.
Newburg also was ordered to serve nine years of extended supervision.
The court imposed a $500 surcharge for each image or each copy of an image associated with the crime, which totaled $6,000.
Allegations
According to a criminal complaint, the Racine County Sheriff's Office executed a search warrant at a residence in the 700 block of Willmor Street on June 3, 2025, after receiving a cyber tip.
During the search, Newburg allegedly told RCSO that the email address associated with the tips belonged to him and that he had at least one video on his cell phone that would be considered child pornography.
A forensic examination of Newburg’s phone reportedly showed “cartoonish” AI-generated pornography depicting children being sexually assaulted by adults.
