Chief United States District Judge Gary L. Lancaster imposed the sentence on Beavers.
The investigation into Beavers’ activities began on October 20, 2010, when authorities discovered that he knowingly possessed visual depictions, namely, images and videos contained in computer graphic files, the production of which involved the use of minors engaging in sexually explicit conduct.
