Brookings resident indicted on child porn charges

PIERRE A Brookings man has been indicted on 50 felony counts of distribution of child pornography.

Mohammad Ghosheh, 24, was indicted Sept. 29 by a Brookings County grand jury. Each count carries a maximum sentence of 15 years in prison.

The alleged incidents occurred between October 2024 and February 2025 in Brookings County. Ghosheh had earlier been charged with one count of solicitation of a minor and 50 felony counts of possession of child pornography.

These crimes exploit and endanger one of the most vulnerable segments of our population, South Dakota Attorney General Marty Jackley said. The Attorney Generals Office will continue to vigorously advocate for our children.

South Dakotas Division of Criminal Investigation is leading the investigation and has been assisted by the South Dakota Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, U.S. Homeland Security Investigations, and the Brookings Police Department. The South Dakota Attorney Generals Office is prosecuting the case.
