Southeast Woman Charged with Promoting Child Sexual Performance

Sheriff Kevin J. McConville reports the arrest of a Southeast woman after a lengthy investigation into internet child pornography.

In July 2024, Sheriff’s Office investigators were alerted by the New York State Police Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force of a cyber tip related to sexually explicit videos and images that were being transmitted from a residence in Putnam County. An investigation was begun which included gathering computer forensic evidence through subpoenas.

On February 18, 2025, a search warrant was executed at the residence of 32-year-old Danielle Sawicki who was interviewed and charged with 3 counts of Promoting a Sexual Performance by a Child Under the Age of Seventeen, a class D felony.

She was arraigned in the Town of Southeast Court where she was ROR’d to return at a future court date.
