A Hardin County man was sentenced Tuesday to 40 years in prison for child pornography offenses.
According to court documents, 30 year-old Michael Smith produced videos of his sexual abuse of a minor victim, and uploaded images and videos of child pornography to a cloud-based storage application via the internet.
Smith was sentenced to 40 years in prison, followed by a 20-term of supervised release, for producing, transporting, and possessing child pornography.
There is no parole in the federal system.
In addition to the 40-year prison sentence, Smith was ordered to pay restitution to victims in the amount of $6,000.
The case was investigated by the FBI with assistance from the Louisville Metro Police Department.
Assistant U.S. Attorney A. Spencer McKiness prosecuted the case.
