North Liberty Man Sentenced to More than 10 Years in Prison for Child Pornography Charge

A North Liberty man was sentenced last Friday to more than a decade of imprisonment for his involvement with uploading and downloading child pornography.

Edwin Hadley Donnan, 45, of North Liberty received a sentence of 130 months of imprisoment and eight years of probationary supervised release following that after pleading guilty to one count of receiving and distributing child pornography.

According to a media release, authorities received a CyberTip from the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) about a web address that had been associated with uploading content to something called the "G Boys" social network. This web address was later tracked back to Donnan, according to the release.

In his guilty plea, Donnan admitted to uploading six images of child pornography to the network, along with downloading other content of this type. He also admitted to sharing other child pornography directly with other users and on a website, according to the release.
