Former Central Illinois Camp Counselor Gets 20 Years For Child Porn

 A former central Illinois camp counselor has been sentenced to 20 years in federal prison for child pornography charges.

Judge Michael McCuskey also ordered 28-year-old Adam Fritz to pay $12,000 in restitution to identified victims. Fritz must remain on supervised release for the rest of his life after his prison sentence.

Fritz pleaded guilty in August to charges of advertising, possessing and distributing child pornography.

Federal prosecutors say authorities seized more than 13,000 images and more than 900 video files of child porn from Fritz's property. The children depicted ranged in age from infants to teens.

Fritz had been a counselor at Camp Shaw-Waw-Nas-See in Kankakee since 2000. He was arrested in November 2009.
