Altamont resident Dylan Ritchel has been sentenced to prison time for offenses related to taking photographs in the women’s restroom in a local restaurant.
The 22-year-old Ritchel was arrested last September for unauthorized video recording and live video transmission, disorderly conduct, aggravated criminal sexual assault of a minor, manufacture of child pornography, and possession of child pornography.
Judge Bryan Kibler sentenced Ritchel to 20 years in prison for manufacture of child pornography, 10 years in prison for predatory criminal sexual assault, and 2-1/2 years on each of two counts of unauthorized videotaping. The sentences will be served consecutively, not at the same time.
