Joplin man who secretly recorded videos of three children in bathroom sentenced to 28 years in prison

(From the U. S. Attorney for the Western District of Missouri)

A Joplin man was sentenced in federal court today for the sexual exploitation of several children.

David Allen Giffen, 57, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge M. Douglas Harpool to 28 years in federal prison without parole. The court also sentenced Giffen to spend the rest of his life on supervised release following incarceration.

On July 18, 2018, Giffen pleaded guilty to one count of the sexual exploitation of a child and one count of receiving and distributing child pornography.





According to court documents, Giffen had placed cameras in his bathroom and secretly recorded images and videos of three children. Investigators found images of the victim children on a Micro SD card in Giffen’s cell phone. Investigators also seized a second cell phone from Giffen that contained multiple images of child pornography.

This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Ami Harshad Miller. It was investigated by the Southwest Missouri Cyber Crimes Task Force, the Joplin, Mo., Police Department and the FBI.

    You all don't know anything and if you knew you wouldn't be posting this stuff because kids can look up things and find out what happened this hurts me and yes he did he also worked at a towing company and you can find his old house and his ex-wife name and where the victims live just by looking things up so if people really cared they wouldn't post his name or photo but they just want views so all of you go to hell!
