AUGUSTA AP) — A Monmouth man is headed to prison after he was caught with child pornography barely a week after he got off probation for having sexually explicit materials.
Raymond Carl LeClair Jr. was sentenced Thursday to serve a year in prison, with the remaining time in an eight-year term suspended.
State Department of Corrections records indicate that LeClair was charged with possessing the 18 explicit movies in September 2011. At that time, LeClair had just gotten off probation following his 1998 conviction of three counts of visual sexual aggression against a child.
The 47-year-old LeClair pleaded guilty to the most recent charge in April 2012 and was sentenced Thursday in Kennebec County Superior Court.
