Last updated on Wednesday, June 9, 2010

(COLUMBIA CITY, IN) - A Columbia City pastor will spend over 12 years behind bars for distributing child pornography.

64-year-old Bernard Squires' prison sentence will be followed by five years of supervised release.

He was arrested in July 2009 after police seized a number of computers, tapes and movies from his rural Columbia City home.

Squires had also served as Chaplain for the Whitley County Sheriff's Department.
