Jordan Francis Toyne, a former investigator with the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation’s Internet Crimes Against Children unit, has been sentenced to more than nine years in federal prison after a jury conviction on multiple counts of sexual abuse of a minor. A federal judge in Muskogee handed down a sentence of 109 months on each of three counts, to be served at the same time. Prosecutors say the abuse started in the summer of 2020 and stretched into 2023, while the victim was still underage.

Federal Sentence And Three-Day Trial
In a statement, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Oklahoma said Toyne, 37, of Broken Arrow, received 109 months in prison on each of three counts of Sexual Abuse of a Minor in Indian Country, with all terms running concurrently. The guilty verdicts followed a three-day federal trial that wrapped up on Jan. 23, 2025. Senior U.S. District Judge Ronald A. White presided over the case.
What Jurors Heard About The Abuse
At trial, prosecutors laid out a timeline that began in the summer of 2020, arguing that Toyne sexually abused one victim from that period until 2023, when the victim turned 16. They also told jurors he sexually abused a second minor in 2021, according to the Broken Arrow Sentinel. Local reporting said jurors heard that Toyne used his position and specialized training to groom his victims and to try to stay off law enforcement’s radar. Court filings state the crimes occurred in Pittsburg County, inside the boundaries of the Choctaw Nation Reservation.
Who Investigated And Where Toyne Is Headed
The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Oklahoma said the investigation was handled by the FBI and the Owasso Police Department, with cooperation from OSBI. Assistant U.S. Attorneys Nicole Paladino and Emily Wittlinger prosecuted the case. Toyne is currently in the custody of the U.S. Marshals Service and will be moved to a Bureau of Prisons facility, according to the announcement. FBI Oklahoma City also highlighted the sentencing on its social media feed.
How Federal Law Treats These Crimes
Under federal law, sexual abuse of a minor in Indian Country is a serious felony. The statute governing the offense, 18 U.S.C. § 2243, allows for a prison term of up to 15 years. That ceiling helps explain why prosecutors pushed for a lengthy sentence in Toyne’s case, with federal sentencing guidelines and the specific facts of his conduct shaping the final number.
The U.S. Attorney’s Office said the prosecution was brought as part of Project Safe Childhood, a broader effort to protect minors on tribal lands and elsewhere from sexual exploitation and abuse.
