Man sentenced to 84 months for child porn

Corey Morning of Box Elder will serve 84 months in prison for possessing and distributing child pornography. Morning was born in 1987.

U.S. District Court Judge Brian Morris imposed the sentence in Great Falls Thursday.

Morning will have 10 months of supervised probation once he is released from prison. Additionally, he will be required to pay $2,000 in restitution.

On April 22, Morning was charged with two counts of distributing child pornography and two counts of possessing child pornography.

Morning pleaded not guilty at the time, but June 16, he filed a motion to change his plea.

Morning was required to forfeit his Seagate FreeAgent GoFlex Drive and Macbook Pro computer to the state.

Morning’s attorney, Evangelo Arvanetes, requested an evaluation July 1 to see if his client was deemed competent.

Morris rejected the request.

That same day, Morning pleaded guilty to one of the counts of knowingly possessing child pornography.

The United States Secret Service investigated this case.
