Strahan sentenced to 10 years in prison for sexual acts with a minor

Pinal County District Attorney Kent Volkmer announced on September 25 that Skyler Strahan, 21, was sentenced to 10 years in prison for sexual acts with a minor and possession of sexually explicit images of children.

On Sept. 23, Pinal County District Court Judge Jason Holmberg sentenced Strahan to 10 years in the Arizona Department of Corrections, followed by life probation, a news release said.

Strahan pleaded guilty to sexual contact with a minor, a sixth-degree felony; sexual exploitation of a minor, a second-degree felony and a dangerous offense against children; and sexual exploitation of a minor in the second degree, a third-degree felony and a preparatory dangerous offense against children.

In June 2023, the Apache Junction Police Department was notified of a possible sexual exploitation of a minor under the age of 16 involving Strahan. The minor victim told police that she had had sexual contact with Strahan and had exchanged explicit images.

Investigators conducted a forensic examination of the minor’s phone and found explicit conversations and images exchanged between the victim and Strahan. During an interview with Strahan, he acknowledged that he was aware of the victim’s age, which is below the legal age of consent.

During a search of Strahan’s home, detectives also discovered sexually explicit images of children.
