Man identified from file-sharing network

TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — A Tucson man has been sentenced to 10 years in federal prison for distributing child pornography.

The U.S. Attorney’s Office in Arizona announced the sentence for 59-year-old Robert Henderson, Jr., on Friday.

Henderson was charged in 2019 after investigators identified him as a user of a file-sharing network where he had obtained child pornography.

The case was prosecuted as part of a U.S. Justice Department program created 15 years ago called Project Safe Childhood.

Henderson will be subject to strict supervision once he is released from prison.

He will also have to complete a sex offender treatment program and register as a sex offender.
