A Jefferson County man has been sentenced on nine counts of possession of child pornography with a victim under the age of 13.
Reports out of Jefferson County say Judge Jerry Crisel sentenced Robert Paul to 46 years in prison on the charges. Paul was also ordered to complete three years to life of mandatory supervised release on each count. He was also fined $45,000.
An investigation started in July of 2023 based on a tip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children, and a search of Paul’s home and electronic records was completed as part of a search warrant executed at his residence.
The case was handled by Assistant Jefferson County State’s Attorney Brian Merrell and Blake Jennings.
