The United States Attorney for the District of Nebraska, Lesley A. Woods, announced that a federal Grand Jury has returned 30 unsealed indictments charging 31 defendants with various offenses.

Among those indicted is Jeffery Robinson, 49, of Springfield, Nebraska, who is charged with failure to register under the Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act (SORNA) between April 7 and May 2, 2025. If convicted, he faces up to 10 years in prison and a $250,000 fine.

"The maximum possible penalty if convicted is not less than fifteen years’ and not more than thirty years’ imprisonment," according to the announcement by U.S. Attorney Lesley A. Woods regarding one case's sentencing guidelines.
All cases will proceed through the federal court system where each defendant will have an opportunity for legal defense before any determination of guilt or sentencing.
