HENRICO, Va. (WVVA) -- A suburban Richmond youth figure skating coach will spend three and a half years in prison after pleading guilty to possessing child pornography.
Attorney General Ken Cuccinelli says 47-year-old David Keith Loncar was sentenced Wednesday to 145 years in prison, with 141 1/2 years suspended.
Loncar admitted to offering to send child pornography videos to an undercover police officer through a peer-to-peer file sharing network. A search of his home computer found more than 75 child pornography videos.
Cuccinelli called Loncar's behavior "absolutely sickening" given that he works directly with children as a coach.
This case was investigated by the Southern Virginia Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force and the Richmond Police Department
