SACRAMENTO, Calif. — A previously convicted sex offender was sentenced to 11 years and 2 months in state prison Tuesday after being convicted of another sex offense.
According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, 48-year-old Joshua Klomp was sentenced for another child sexual abuse imagery possession charge while on supervised release for a similar 2006 crime.
Prior to serving 10 years in prison for the 2006 charge, he was convicted in Butte County of lewd and lascivious acts with a child in 1995.
Klomp was first found to be in possession of such images during a 2018 probation visit.
His devices contained nearly 3,000 internet history files associated with searches for explicit material of young boys engaged in sex acts, according to law enforcement.
