LINCOLN, Neb. (AP) — A North Platte man has been sentenced to 10 years in federal prison for taking a young girl to Colorado for sex.

Officials say 23-year-old Michael Stansall pleaded guilty to charges of transportation of a minor with the intent to engage in sexual activity.

Court records say Stansall met with the 13-year-old girl in June in North Platte and drove her to Colorado, where he sexually assaulted her.

Stansall gets 15 years of supervised release following his 10 years in prison. He was also ordered to pay nearly $2,000 for the girl’s counseling services.
