FOND DU LAC, Wis. — The deputy finance director for the city of Appleton is sentenced to six months in jail for exchanging explicit photos with a minor on social media.
Amanda Rae Toney is also sentenced in Fond du Lac County Court to three years on probation and must register as a sex offender for soliciting an intimate representation from a minor and child neglect.
Toney exchanged lewd photos with a 15-year-old boy through the messaging app Snapchat in 2024 while working as deputy finance director for the city of Ripon.
According to reporting by the Appleton Post Crescent, Toney was under investigation by police at the time she was hired by the city of Appleton as deputy finance director in November of ’24 and previously spent a day in jail in January of 2025. She had been facing another charge of child neglect in Waushara County, but that has been dismissed.
Toney’s employment status with the city is unclear at this time.
