Report: Ex-Fox News producer gets ten years for child porn

According to a Tweet by ABC News’ Jake Tapper, a former Fox News producer received a ten year prison sentence for child pornography charges.

Tapper’s Twitter said, “the @foxnews reporter who pleaded guilty to possession of child pornography, Aaron Bruns (@abruns) was just sentenced to 10 yrs in prison.”

The Associated Press reported the sentencing late Tuesday afternoon.

“The U.S. Attorney’s Office says Aaron Bruns was sentenced Tuesday in U.S. District Court,” the AP article stated. “Prosecutors had recommended the 10-year term, citing Bruns’ prior conviction on similar charges.”

6. Is the use of "ex" appropriate here?
Wasn't Bruns a FOX employee when he was busted with child porn?

And get a load of this. Fox knew they hired a sicko. From 1999:
Less than two weeks after Department of Public Safety detectives had arrested him on charges of distributing child pornography, LSA first-year student Aaron Bruns voluntarily dropped out of the University while his case was pending, his lawyer told District Court Judge John Collins on Wednesday.

As a condition of his freedom - Bruns is out on a personal recognizance bond - Washtenaw County Assistant Prosecutor John Reiser asked that Bruns not use a computer for anything other than school work, said County Recorder Jackie Wallen.

Bruns' attorney Douglas Mullkoff indicated that he would not be using a computer since he had left the University.

Bruns' preliminary hearing was adjourned until May 12 at the request of his lawyer. Bruns was not present in court yesterday, having returned home to Lima, Ohio.

10. You know what they say - anyone that far to the right is hiding a deep dark secret.
