OMAHA, Neb. (AP) — A former Nebraska day care employee has pleaded guilty to possessing and distributing child pornography.

Thirty-five-year-old James Klinkner took a deal with prosecutors on Monday. He pleaded guilty to two counts each of possession and distribution of child pornography. Twenty-nine other counts of possession were dismissed.

The former La Petite Academy worker was arrested after police in Bellevue received a tip from someone in Germany who said they received pornography from Klinkner.

Authorities say Klinkner had two child porn images on his computer and he had emailed them 31 times. They say the victims are not from Omaha.

Klinkner will be sentenced in January.
