FORT WORTH, Texas - A man from north Texas was sentenced on Friday to 10
years in prison after he pleaded guilty in December 2009 to one count of
receiving child pornography. This sentence was announced by U.S. Attorney
James T. Jacks of the Northern District of Texas; the case was investigated
by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE).
Stacy Onken, 37, of Euless, Texas, admitted using the Internet to download
video files of minor children engaged in sexually explicit conduct. A
forensic examination of Onken's computer and related storage media, seized
by ICE agents at his home in October 2009, revealed more than 30 video clips
of child pornography.
Onken has been in custody since his arrest in October. U.S. District Judge
John McBryde also ordered Onken to serve a lifetime of supervised release
following his imprisonment.
