BALTIMORE (AP) — Federal prosecutors say a Hagerstown man has been sentenced to 20 years in prison for sexually abusing a child to produce child pornography.

Robert Paul Hade, 53, was also ordered at Monday’s sentencing to register as a sex offender.

According to Hade’s plea agreement, a child told authorities that Hade had abused her from the time she was eight years old until she was 10. A search warrant executed last year on Hade’s home led to the recovery of pictures and a video documenting the sexual abuse of the child.
