TUCSON, Ariz. — A former Fort Huachuca soldier who claims he put child pornography on his cell phone to help law enforcement catch those who produced the images was sentenced Monday to 18 months in federal prison.

Prosecutors say 34-year-old Raymond Johnson also was sentenced to 18 months of house arrest after his release from prison, as well as five years of supervised release to run concurrently with the house arrest.

Johnson entered a guilty plea to one count of possession of child pornography in August 2008.

He was arrested in December 2007 after returning from a third tour of duty in Iraq.

Authorities say a cell phone belonging to Johnson was found in Sierra Vista on Oct. 4, 2007 — the same day he had deployed to Iraq and a day after he claimed to have lost the phone.
