GREELEY, Colo. (AP) — The former pastor of a Greeley church has been sentenced to 10 years in prison for possessing child pornography.

Richard Craft, a former interim pastor at Family of Christ Presbyterian Church, told U.S. District Judge Brooke Jackson that he was unable to stay away from the illegal images.

Craft was indicted for possessing, receiving and distributing child pornography, but in return for his plea of guilty to one count of possession, prosecutors agreed to drop the other charges.
