LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) – A Lincoln man has received a 6-year prison sentence for receiving and distributing child pornography.

U.S. Attorney Deborah Gilg says Robert M. Fast was sentenced Oct. 20 in U.S. District Court in Lincoln for receipt and distribution of child pornography. After his release, Fast will have to serve 5 years of supervised release and register as a sex offender. He also was ordered to pay nearly $20,000 in restitution to one of the child pornography victims.

Lincoln police found Fast through child pornography images on a file-sharing network. They tracked the images to a computer at his home, and searched the residence in November 2010. When investigators examined his computer, they found 26 digital images and 23 videos of child pornography.
