(Rochester, NY) 12/14/05 -- On Wednesday, US District Judge David Larimer sentenced the Rev. Michael Volino to 15 months in federal prison to be followed by 10 years of supervision.
The judge also prohibited Volino from working with children.
Volino has 60 days to turn himself in; he is allowed to spend the holidays with his family.
In May, Volino pleaded guilty to one count of possessing child pornography.
Federal prosecutors said he had more than 600 digital images of children engaging in sexual intercourse. They had recommended that he spend four to five years in prison. He could have been sentenced to a maximum of 10 years and remain under supervision for life.
