FRANKFORT, Ky. (LEX 18) — A former Eastern Kentucky University aviation professor has been sentenced for attempting to produce child pornography.

On September 7, 2023, an EKU student found a camera in a men's bathroom on campus. Investigation revealed that Knezevich planted the camera.
A search of Knezevich's home revealed that he produced recordings of both adult and minor men from 2009 through 2023.
Videos were found that were recorded in campus bathrooms, locker rooms, and Knezevich's home bathroom.
