PITTSBURGH — A man who stored child pornography on his cell phone was sentenced Monday to eight years in federal prison and a life term of probation.

Federal prosecutors charged Kenneth Patrick Jeffries II, 23, of Sharpsville, after he lost his cell phone at a rib cook-off in Niles, Ohio, in July 2006. Those who found the phone turned it on to try and locate Jeffries and discovered the images, which they turned over to police.

Jeffries pleaded guilty to the child porn charge in April.
