Sicko who molested 2-year-old girl at Seaworld sent to prison for decades

ORLANDO, Fla. — A sexual predator who molested a child while her mom rode a roller coaster has been re-sentenced to 30 years in federal prison for sexual exploitation of a child following an investigation by law enforcement.

Michael Brian Grzybowicz, 30, of Cocoa, Florida, was also sentenced to a lifetime term of supervision following his release. A federal jury found Grzybowicz guilty of producing, distributing and possessing child pornography. He was also sentenced to another 10-year prison term to run concurrent to the 30-year sentence.

According to testimony and evidence presented at trial, Grzybowicz went to Sea World with a family, including a 2-year-old girl and a 5-year-old boy, to celebrate the children’s mother’s birthday. While at the park, Grzybowicz was asked by the parents of the children to watch the minor girl and her brother while the parents rode a roller coaster. While the parents were on the roller coaster, Grzybowicz molested the 2 year-old and took explicit photographs of the child, using his cell phone. He emailed those pictures to his personal e-mail address after leaving the park. Two days later, at their Cocoa residence, Grzybowicz’s wife found one of the photographs on Grzybowicz’s cell phone. She reported the photographs to the Cocoa Police Department. Law enforcement authorities located Grzybowicz’s computer, which contained other images of child pornography, including the images he had taken of the child at the theme park. Grzybowicz was arrested after he provided a statement to a police detective.

Grzybowicz was originally sentenced to 30 years in federal prison in 2012 before appealing the judgment. On May 6, 2014, the United States Court of Appeals for the Eleventh Circuit vacated the conviction on distribution of child pornography and vacated the sentences on all counts. The case was remanded back to the district court for resentencing.
