WICHITA, Kan. (AP) — A Garden City man has been sentenced to nine years in federal prison for distributing child pornography.

According to U.S. Attorney Barry Grissom, 33-year-old Alfredo Franco Jr. was sentenced Tuesday. He had pleaded guilty to one count of distributing child pornography. Prosecutors say Franco downloaded and shared child pornography over the Internet from June 2012 to November 2013.

Grissom says that during the execution of a search warrant at Franco’s home, investigators found images with creation dates that spanned a year’s time on his computer.
