A former Buffalo, Mo., elementary school teacher’s assistant was indicted by a federal grand jury today for producing and possessing child pornography.
Dalton Cole Sherman, 19, of Buffalo, was charged in a three-count indictment returned by a federal grand jury in Springfield, Mo. Sherman was a teacher’s assistant at the DA Mallory Elementary School in Buffalo at the time of the offense.
Today’s indictment charges Sherman with two counts of child sexual exploitation. Sherman allegedly used two minors, on two separate occasions on June 11, 2015, to produce child pornography. The minors are identified in the indictment as “Jane Doe” and “John Doe.”
Sherman is also charged with one count of possessing child pornography.
The federal indictment also contains a forfeiture allegation, which would require Sherman to forfeit to the government any property used to commit the alleged offenses, including a Samsung pen camera and a Nook tablet.
This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Ami Harshad Miller. It was investigated by the Dallas County, Mo., Sheriff’s Department, the State Technical Assistance Team and the FBI.
