On June 17th, 2026, Vernon resident, Jeremy Pawlikowski was in court, in front of the Honorable Michael R. Nolan, to be sentenced after pleading guilty to Promoting Sexual Performance by a Child Less Than 17 years of age, a Class D Felony in late April. Pawlikowski was sentenced to a term of 10 years of probation, with the first six months to be served in the Oneida County Jail. Additionally, Pawlikowski will have to register as a s*x offender for minimum of twenty years.

The case was investigated by the Oneida County Domestic Violence and Child Advocacy Center and Oneida County Sheriff’s Department. The investigation began when authorities discovered that Pawlikowski had uploaded child po*******hy on to an internet platform. Subsequentially authorities executed a Search Warrant for Pawlikowski’s cell phone which contained illicit pictures and videos of child po*******hy. Pawlikowski also admitted to Sheriff Deputies his possession and promotion of such pictures and videos.

The Case was prosecuted by Senior Assistant District Attorney Laurie Lisi just prior to her stepping down from her post after 38 years of faithful service.
