  POCATELLO — A 49-year-old Idaho Falls man was sentenced to prison Monday for attempted sex crimes against a child.

  Chief U.S. District Judge David C. Nye sentenced Nathan Law to 10 years in federal prison, followed by 10 years of supervised release.

  “Child predators will find no refuge in Idaho,” U.S. Attorney Josh Hurwit said in a news release. “Instead, they will find justice and a ticket to federal prison.”

  Originally, Law was charged with six felonies for possessing child sexually exploitative material and four felonies for video voyeurism in Bonneville County in 2022.

  Those charges were dropped after Law was indicted by a federal grand jury early last year on one count of attempted sexual exploitation of a minor child, one count of distribution of child pornography and one count of possession of child pornography.

  Law pleaded guilty to attempted sexual exploitation of a minor child last year. The two other counts were dismissed due to a plea agreement.

  According to court records, between July and September 2022, the Idaho Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force discovered Law had downloaded thousands of images of child pornography over the internet.

  Investigators executed a search warrant at Law’s home in December 2022 and found child porn on his electronic devices.

  Law admitted not only that he downloaded the images but that he also had hidden a camera in his camp trailer bathroom and captured images of a minor girl using the shower, a news release from the United States Attorney’s Office District of Idaho said.

  He told investigators that he had a pornography problem and that it has “gone too far.” He admitted to trying to film up the skirts of young girls at church.

  Law also admitted to sharing child porn, including the images he produced with another Idaho Falls man, Che Miles. Miles was sentenced to over 11 years in federal prison in September.

  “This is the level of evil that we fight against – a man who would seek to create pornographic images of children,” said Attorney General Raúl Labrador, who oversees the Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force for Idaho. “We cannot pretend it doesn’t happen in our communities. This kind of exploitation must be stopped at every turn.”

  IDAHO FALLS — A 48-year-old Idaho Falls man has been charged with 10 felonies after allegedly sharing child pornography online and admitting to trying to film up the skirts of young girls at church.

  Nathan Mark Law was charged with the crimes on Wednesday. The incidents allegedly happened earlier in December, November and in July. He was charged with six felonies for possessing child sexually exploitative material and four felonies for video voyeurism.

  According to court documents, during the month of July, investigators with the Idaho Attorney General’s Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force identified a suspect who was allegedly sharing child sexual abuse material online with other internet users. Investigators found thousands of images that were shared.

  The suspect was identified as Law. Six of the most egregious sexual videos uploaded on Law’s computer showed young girls ranging in age from 8 to 14.

  A search warrant was executed at Law’s home in Idaho Falls on Dec. 13. Agencies involved were the Bonneville County Sheriff’s Office, Idaho Falls Police Department and the Idaho Attorney General’s Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, documents said.

  Law told investigators that he has a pornography problem and that it has “gone too far.” He said he attempted to film people in the past without their knowledge, using hidden cameras in private areas.

  He explained to investigators that at least three separate victims in different residences in Bonneville County were filmed using a GoPro camera. The videos were taken in an area of the home where the victims had an expectation of privacy, documents said.

  Two of the victims were adults at the time, and one was possibly under 18.

  Law told investigators he shared the voyeuristic videos with other people online.

  He additionally admitted to inappropriately filming young children at his church. Law said he had attempted to record a video up a girl’s skirt within the past couple of weeks. He said he was trying to film the child for sexual reasons, documents said.

  Investigators found evidence of what Law was admitting to.

  He was arrested and taken to the Bonneville County Jail, where he was charged. Law’s bond was set at $75,000. He is required to go to pretrial services if he posts bond and wear an ankle monitor.

  He had an initial court appearance on Wednesday and is expected back in court on Dec. 27 for a preliminary hearing at 1 p.m. at the Bonneville County courthouse.

• 6. Two East Idaho men each get 10 years in federal prison for attempted sex crimes against children

  POCATELLO — U.S. Attorney Josh Hurwit announced the outcomes in two separate East Idaho cases in which the defendants were sentenced to 10 years in federal prison for attempted sex crimes against a minor child.

  “These cases demonstrate that child predators will find no refuge in Idaho,” said U.S. Attorney Hurwit. “Instead, they will find justice and a ticket to federal prison. My office is fortunate to work with law enforcement across the state who spare no effort in tracking down these criminals. And we will continue to prosecute these offenders to the fullest extent of the law.”

  On February 2, 2024, Lawrence Osborn, 44, of Soda Springs, was sentenced to ten years in prison for attempted coercion and enticement of a minor. According to court records, on February 24, 2023, agents with Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) in San Angelo, Texas, conducted an online undercover operation to identify adults engaged in sexually predatory behavior towards children. During the operation, Osborn engaged in online chat communications with one of the undercover HSI agents who was posing as a mother with a 7-year-old daughter. In those communications, Osborn proposed that the mother travel from Texas to Idaho so that Osborn could sexually abuse the 7-year-old child. Osborn offered the mother money and travel accommodations to facilitate the sexual abuse of the 7-year-old. On March 3, Osborn arrived at a grocery store in Soda Springs with the intention of meeting the mother and 7-year-old, and he was arrested.

  “Fortunately, Osborn was talking to an undercover agent and not a real parent or child,” said Shohini Sinha of the Salt Lake City FBI. “This case highlights the collective efforts of law enforcement to protect society’s most vulnerable and hold child predators accountable.”

  “Internet crime knows no border or boundaries, and in this instance our joint law enforcement partnerships were able to stop this Idaho based child predator from finding victims wherever his disgusting impulses may have led him,” said Special Agent in Charge Robert Hammer, who oversees HSI operations in the Pacific Northwest. “This sentence helps to keep our communities, both virtual and throughout Idaho, safe from those who would prey upon children.”

  Senior U.S. District Judge B. Lynn Winmill also ordered that Osborn be placed on supervised release for ten years following his prison sentence. Osborn pleaded guilty to the charge on September 14, 2023.

  In a separate case, Nathan Mark Law, 49, of Idaho Falls was also sentenced to ten years in prison on February 5, 2024. According to court records, between July and September 2022, the Idaho Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force found that Law had downloaded thousands of images of child pornography also known as, “child sexual abuse material” (CSAM) over the internet. Investigators executed a search warrant of Law’s residence where they discovered CSAM on Law’s electronic devices. Law admitted not only that he downloaded CSAM but also that he had hidden a camera in his camp trailer bathroom and captured images of a minor female using the shower. Law also admitted to sharing CSAM including the images he produced with another Idaho Falls man, Che Miles. Miles was sentenced to 136 months in federal prison in September.

  “This is the level of evil that we fight against — a man who would seek to create pornographic images of children,” said Attorney General Raúl Labrador, who oversees the Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force for Idaho. “We cannot pretend it doesn’t happen in our communities. This kind of exploitation must be stopped at every turn. These cases are a cooperative effort and I’m grateful for everyone involved in these successful prosecutions. The stakes could not be higher when it comes to putting those that prey on Idaho’s children behind bars.”

  Chief U.S. District Judge David C. Nye sentenced Law to 120 months in federal prison followed by ten years of supervised release. Law pleaded guilty to attempted sexual exploitation of a minor child on June 26, 2023.

  The Osborn case was investigated by HSI in Idaho Falls, in conjunction with HSI in Dallas and San Angelo, with assistance from the Idaho State Police, the United States Marshals Service, the Federal Bureau of Investigation, and the Soda Springs Police Department. The Law and Miles cases were investigated by the Idaho ICAC Task Force, HSI in Idaho Falls, the Idaho Falls Police Department, and the Bonneville County Sheriff’s Office. Assistant U.S. Attorney Justin Paskett prosecuted these cases.

  These case were brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a nationwide initiative to combat the growing epidemic of child sexual exploitation and abuse launched in May 2006 by the Department of Justice. As part of Project Safe Childhood, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the District of Idaho and the Idaho Attorney General’s Office partner to marshal federal, state and local resources to better locate, apprehend and prosecute individuals who exploit children via the Internet, as well as to identify and rescue victims.
