MEDFORD, Ore. (AP) - A registered sex offender accused of abusing a girl and sharing photos of her has been sentenced in Medford to 37 years in prison.

With a plea deal Monday in federal court, 43-year-old Christopher Keith Hammer of Eagle Point avoided a possible life sentence.

The Mail Tribune reports (https://bit.ly/1l039fG) he pleaded guilty to using a minor to produce a visual depiction of sexually explicit conduct.



Hammer was identified last year in an FBI investigation of child pornography trade on the Internet.
