An Anamosa man who videotaped himself sexually abusing an 8-year old girl will spend four decades in prison. Thirty-seven-year-old Christopher Heggebo pleaded guilty in July to one count of producing child pornography and one count of possessing child porn.

Heggebo admitted that in January he engaged in sexually explicit conduct with an eight-year-old girl and video-taped the activity at his home. He also admitted possessing pornographic images of a 10-year-old girl on his cell phone. U.S. District Court Chief Judge Linda Reade on Monday sentenced Heggebo to the statutory maximum of 40 years in prison.
