sex-offendersNEBRASKA CITY, Neb. (AP) — A convicted sex offender has pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl less than a year after he left a Nebraska prison.

Online court records say 23-year-old Nebraska City resident Preston Boehnke pleaded guilty Tuesday in a deal with prosecutors. A second count was dropped in exchange for Boehnke’s plea. A sex offender specific psychological evaluation will be completed before his sentencing, which is scheduled for Jan. 10.

Boehnke was sentenced in 2013 to three to five years in prison for possession of child pornography. He was released from custody in July 2015. Court records say the sex assault occurred April 1 this year.
