MINNEAPOLIS (KFGO) - A former Fergus Falls teacher has been sentenced to five years in federal prison for having child pornography.
Joshua Noble, 39, was a substitute teacher in Fergus Falls for about 15 years. The US Attorney's Office says undercover law enforcement discovered that Noble was active on an internet-based messaging service called Chatstep. He had more than 240 images of children under 12, including toddlers and infants. Noble pleaded guilty.
Besides the prison time, Noble was ordered to make restitution of $26,000 dollars and pay a $5,000 dollar special assessment to the Domestic Trafficking Victims Fund.
