Elk City Man Sentenced to Serve 40 Years in Federal Prison for Production and Possession of Child Pornography

OKLAHOMA CITY – TIMOTHY STEVEN BLAYLOCK, JR., 38, of Elk City, has been sentenced to serve 480 months in federal prison for producing child pornography and possession of child pornography, announced U.S. Attorney Robert J. Troester.

On November 17, 2023, Blaylock was charged with production of child pornography involving two victims and possession of child pornography. According to public record, in July 2023, an undercover FBI agent began communicating with Blaylock via a mobile messaging service. The agent purported to be the mother of a 12-year-old girl, to whom Blaylock made several sexually explicit comments. The affidavit alleges the conversation continued for several days, during which Blaylock shared several videos with the agent depicting himself sexually abusing minors. Blaylock was arrested on July 28, 2023.

After his arrest, the FBI determined that Blaylock had produced child pornography with two children using his cell phone. Blaylock also downloaded other child pornography via the Internet and possessed it on his cell phone.

On November 27, 2023, Blaylock pleaded guilty and admitted to sexually abusing two minors multiple times, which he filmed using his cell phone between March of 2021 and July of 2023, and to possessing other child pornography on his cell phone.

At the sentencing hearing on July 15, 2024, U.S. District Judge David L. Russell sentenced Blaylock to serve 480 months in federal prison, followed by supervised release for life. In announcing his sentence, Judge Russell described Blaylock’s actions as “unforgiveable,” and added that the “world needs to know you pay a price” for this kind of criminal conduct.

This case is the result of an investigation by the FBI Oklahoma City Field Office, FBI New Orleans Field Office, and Elk City Police Department. Assistant U.S. Attorney Brandon Hale prosecuted the case.

This case is part of Project Safe Childhood (PSC), a nationwide initiative by the Department of Justice (DOJ) to combat child sexual exploitation and abuse.  Led by U.S. Attorney’s Offices and the DOJ Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section, PSC marshals 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.  For more information about PSC, please visit www.justice.gov/psc.
