Woman who videotaped child sex assault gets prison term

Posted

TRENTON, N.J. (AP) -- A woman who videotaped herself sexually assaulting a 4-year-old relative and then sold the footage is headed to prison.

Pamela Dziminski received a 25-year sentence Friday. The 30-year-old Ewing, New Jersey, woman had pleaded guilty last year to aggravated sexual assault after authorities discovered the videos online.

Authorities say Dziminski admitted performing sex acts on the boy and taping them on her cellphone. She then sent the videos to three people who gave her cash.

Child welfare officials alerted Mercer County authorities when they found a video circulating online. They say Dziminski also took nude photos of the child and nude photos of herself with the child.

Dziminski's attorney unsuccessfully argued for a lesser sentence, saying there were other circumstances that affected her client's behavior.
