CONCORD, N.H. (AP) - A former New Hampshire youth baseball coach convicted of sexual exploitation of a child and possessing child pornography has been sentenced to 40 years in prison.
Robert Joubert (JOO’-bert) of Manchester was found guilty in November. Court documents say the victims were under age 13 at the time of the abuse.
