A 57-year-old Sturgeon Bay man was put behind bars late last week on child pornography charges. According to court records, Scott James Soucek appeared in court via video from the Door County Jail last Friday on 10 counts of possession of child pornography with a modifier of lifetime supervision of serious sex offenders. The offenses allegedly took place on March 13th, 2025.
Soucek notified Judge David Weber in court that he does not qualify for a state public defender, leading Judge Weber to advise Soucek to get a lawyer ahead of his next hearing, which was scheduled for August 29th at 9 a.m.
A $10,000 cash bond was set for Soucek’s release with the stipulation that he has no unsupervised contact with minors and not use any file-sharing software.
