Portland -
An Old Orchard Beach man has been sentenced to a year in prison after pleading guilty to possession of child pornography.
Ludger R. Binette was also sentenced Monday in U.S. District Court in Portland to 10 years of probation.
The 65-year-old Binette pleaded guilty in April.
Federal prosecutors say in 2009, federal and state law enforcement agents executed a search warrant at the defendant's home and seized a computer that had images of child pornography on it from his bedroom.
