A former Omro alderman has been sentenced for possession of child pornography.
FOX11 reports that 44-year-old Jason Reeves was given six years in a federal prison on the charges, and he’ll also be on supervised release for 10 years after the prison term is done.
The investigation into Reeves began when the Winnebago County Sheriff’s Office received a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, noting that an IP address had child pornography on it.
A search of the 44-year-old’s computer found that a video of a young girl, believed to be between seven and ten years old, was sent to another person through a chat message.
A search warrant was done by the sheriff’s office in April last year, where the file depicting the child pornography was found.
