Austin man sentenced to jail time and supervised probation on gross misdemeanor charges of nonconsensual dissemination of private sexual images charges in Mower County District Court
An Austin man who posted nude images of an ex-girlfriend to an account on the social media site Reddit from March through December of 2022 has been sentenced to jail time and supervised probation in Mower County District Court.
25-year old Jacob Louis Cano was convicted and sentenced Thursday to 364 days in jail and two years of supervised probation each for two gross misdemeanor counts of nonconsensual dissemination of private sexual images, intentionally disseminating an image or images without consent. Judge Jeffery Kritzer stayed 362 days of the jail time for two years if Cano complies with the eight different conditions of his probation, and he was given credit for two days already served. Judge Kritzer also determined that Cano will be allowed to serve the two sentences concurrently.
Cano pleaded guilty to the two charges on February 26th of this year, and a felony charge for nonconsensual dissemination of private sexual images, intentionally disseminating an image or images without consent in the case was dismissed with his guilty pleas.
