A Valley man who appeared in a documentary in 2016 about young athletes was arrested Thursday for allegedly recording himself having sex with two females without their permission, according to court records.
Gage Gregurich, 19, faces two counts of unlawful intrusion by phone or video, a felony. He faces up to two years in prison on each charge if convicted. He was ordered held on $25,000 bail Thursday.
The Douglas County affidavit filed by Valley police alleges:
In 2022, Gregurich had separate consensual sexual encounters, one in May and one in December, with two females.
At the time, one female was 17 and the other was 18. Gregurich, who was then 16, recorded the encounters without either partner’s consent.
Later, Gregurich sent each of his former sexual partners a copy of the videos “and asked each victim to go out with him several times, but each victim had always refused.”
The alleged victims also told investigators Gregurich sent unsolicited photos of his genitals to them both before and “well after” the encounters and asked them for naked photos.
Gage Gregurich, shown here at age 10, of Valley competed and set new American and World Records at the Cornhusker State Games that year.
“Our investigation shows (Gregurich) threatened both victims to upload the video to the web and allow it to go viral before the victims blocked (Gregurich) from all social media outlets,” the affidavit said.
In 2014, The World-Herald reported that Gregurich, a 10-year-old at the time, was shattering world records in weightlifting.
Gregurich also appeared in the documentary “Baby Bodybuilders” which aired on TLC in 2016. According to a U.S. Sun article in 2022, at age 9 Gregurich was able to deadlift three times his own bodyweight “which would have been 171 pounds.”
Gregurich’s preliminary hearing is set for June 5.
