Colorado Man Sentenced to 30 Years in Texas for Child Pornography Offenses
A Colorado man, Jacob Davis, has been sentenced to 30 years in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice after pleading guilty to child pornography charges. The sentence follows a proactive undercover investigation by the Montgomery County Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force that led to the rescue of potential victims.
The investigation began when Sergeant J. Serratt of the Montgomery County Precinct One Constable’s Office engaged with Davis online. During the exchange, Davis sent Sergeant Serratt multiple videos containing child pornography, raising immediate concerns for the safety of children.
Sergeant Serratt, in collaboration with Detective Minchew of Precinct Two Constable’s Office and other ICAC Task Force members, quickly located and safeguarded several potential victims.
Davis was subsequently charged in Montgomery County with three counts of Possession with Intent to Promote Child Pornography and two counts of Sexual Performance of a Child. He was extradited to Montgomery County on June 20, 2024.
On May 29, 2025, Davis pleaded guilty and received a total sentence of 30 years, consisting of 20 years for one count of Possession with Intent to Promote Child Pornography and an additional 10 years for a second count, to be served consecutively. He will be required to register as a sex offender for life and must serve at least half of his sentence before becoming eligible for parole.
Chief Prosecutor Chris Seufert stated, “Jacob Davis thought he could hide behind a screen in another state, but the children he exploited were real. Thanks to swift action, they were protected—and now Davis is serving a 30-year sentence that will follow him for life.”
District Attorney Brett Ligon added, “No city is a sanctuary and no state is too far. I’ll use every. Legal. Tool. To bring you to justice in Montgomery County… His crimes reached our community—and thanks to fast, coordinated law enforcement action, his access to children was cut off and justice was served. This should send a clear message to predators everywhere.”
The case was investigated by the Montgomery County Precinct 1 Constable’s Office in partnership with the Montgomery County District Attorney’s Office, with support from various other law enforcement agencies including the Houston Metro ICAC Task Force and the Loveland Police Department in Colorado.
