Soldier sentenced to 40 years for exploiting minors

Bebak Gurung, a 22-year-old U.S. Army soldier stationed at Fort Riley, Kansas, was sentenced to 40 years in prison after pleading guilty to two counts of sexually exploiting minors by producing child sexual abuse material. The FBI investigation began after a New York minor reported online communications in which Gurung, posing as a woman, instructed the child to make sexually explicit videos. A search of his barracks uncovered electronic devices containing child sexual abuse material and evidence of another minor victim in Kansas.
