Former Milford Second Grade Teacher Sentenced to More Than Three Years in Prison for Possessing Child Pornography

BOSTON – A former Milford teacher was sentenced today in federal court in Worcester for possessing child sexual abuse material (CSAM). 

Vincent Kiejzo, 36, was sentenced by U.S. District Court Judge Margaret R. Guzman to 42 months in prison, to be followed by five years of supervised release. Kiejzo was also ordered to pay $43,500 in restitution to victims. In December 2024, Kiejzo pleaded guilty to one count of possession of child pornography. 

In or around May 2019, an IP address registered to Kiejzo was linked to two websites known to host videos, photos and discussions of content depicting the sexual exploitation of minor victims. During a search of Kiejzo’s Milford home in September 2020, a USB drive plugged into a television in his bedroom was located and found to contain links to websites dedicated to child sexual exploitation. The USB drive also contained well as over 6,000 images of CSAM – including images that involved infants. 

At the time of his arrest, Kiejzo was a second-grade teacher in Milford. Upon his release from prison, Kiejzo will be required to register as a sex offender and will be prohibited from contact with children.

Acting United States Attorney Joshua S. Levy and Michael J. Krol, Special Agent in Charge of the Homeland Security Investigations in New England made the announcement. The Milford Police Department also assisted with the investigation. Assistant U.S. Attorney Kristen Noto of the Worcester Office prosecuted the case. 

This case was 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. Led by the U.S. Attorneys’ Offices and the DOJ’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, Project Safe Childhood marshals federal, state, and local resources to locate, apprehend and prosecute individuals who exploit children, as well as identify and rescue victims.
