Missouri youth tennis coach sentenced for child porn

(AP) — A western Missouri man who coached youth tennis has been sentenced to 6 ½ years in federal prison for soliciting nude photos from a Kansas teenager he Jailwas coaching.

The U.S. Attorney’s office says 56-year-old Rex Haultain, of Parkville, must also pay $15,000 in restitution under the sentence he received Monday in federal court in Kansas City, Kan.

Haultain pleaded guilty in July to one count of soliciting child pornography.

He admitted telling the girl in 2009 that that he found her sexually attractive. He also admitted showing her a pornographic picture of himself in 2010 and asking her for nude photos of herself.

The victim, now 18, read a statement at the sentencing saying Haultain took advantage of her hopes of becoming an outstanding tennis player.
