A 56-year-old Sturgeon Bay man will spend the next three years in prison and remain under supervision for the rest of his life after being sentenced Wednesday on child pornography charges.

Scott James Soucek was arrested last July on 10 counts of possession of child pornography, each carrying a modifier of lifetime supervision for serious sex offenders. He originally entered a not guilty plea last October before additional hearings in November and January. He later entered no contest pleas to the charges in May.

Soucek also was fined $500 for each count. In addition, he must register with the Wisconsin Sex Offender Registry, is prohibited from unsupervised contact with minors without permission, and will have his internet use monitored at the discretion of the Wisconsin Department of Corrections.
