(From the U. S. Attorney for the Western District of Missouri)A Springfield, Mo., man who sexually exploited two child victims was sentenced in federal court today.
Connor Wilson Zacha, 29, was sentenced by U.S. District Judge M. Douglas Harpool to 30 years in federal prison without parole, followed by a lifetime of supervised release. Zacha received 30-year sentences for two counts of child exploitation with both sentences running concurrently. Zacha will be required to register as a sex offender upon his release from prison and will be subject to federal and state sex offender registration requirements, which may apply throughout his life.
According to court documents, Zacha, who pleaded guilty on Oct. 14, 2025, used a minor, identified as Jane Doe 1, to produce child pornography from Nov. 1, 2022, to Nov. 15, 2023. Zacha also used another minor, identified as Jane Doe 2, to produce child pornography from Oct. 1, 2023, to April 18, 2024. Zacha’s cellular device contained images of both Jane Doe 1 and 2, and sexually explicit images and videos of Jane Doe 2, including video of Zach and Jane Doe 2 engaged in sexually explicit conduct.
This case is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Ami Harshad Miller. It was investigated by Homeland Security Investigations and the Greene County, Missouri Sheriff’s Department.

Still not a long enough time. He will be 59 years old, if he serves the full 30 years. Still young enough to cause harm to additional innocent children.
