Raymond Belsan, 33, of Syracuse, Ind., was sentenced this week in Northern District federal court to 120 months — or 10 years imprisonment, with 7 years supervised release — after pleading guilty to the felony offense of distribution of child pornography.

According to documents filed in this case, in September 2012, Belsan possessed a custom built desktop computer on which he had downloaded numerous images and videos that depicted minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct. Belsan also utilized file sharing programs which he used to download these images from others via the Internet. Belsan also enabled file sharing for others to access some of the child pornography on his machine.

This case resulted from an investigation by members of the Indiana Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation.
