Sentencing set for ex-Fox News journalist
A former Fox News Channel producer convicted on a child pornography charge is set to be sentenced Tuesday, the second D.C. journalist to be sentenced on the same charge in less than a week.
Aaron Bruns, 29, pleaded guilty in May to possession of child pornography after investigators said he had been sharing the images online. Bruns, who pleaded to a child pornography charge as a juvenile in 1999, faces up to 10 years.
Last week, former National Public Radio science editor David Malakoff, 46, was spared time behind bars by a D.C. federal judge partially because the journalist had been sexually assaulted as a 9-year-old boy.
