A Sterling man will serve up to four years in prison for possessing and sharing child sexual abuse material, according to The Citizen.
Gregory Flynn, 39, was arrested in March after a year-long state police investigation sparked by a national tip. Officers found explicit material on several devices in his home, including content involving a 5-year-old. He faced 23 charges in total.
At sentencing, Flynn initially downplayed his guilt, calling the charges “mostly true,” but later took full responsibility. He’ll have to register as a sex offender after serving his time.
