(KNZA)--A Fairview man convicted of attempted sexual exploitation of a child has been placed on probation.
Jeffrey Petersen was sentenced this week in Brown County District Court to 34-months in prison on the felony charge and to 12-months in jail on a misdemeanor charge of harassment by telephone. The sentence was ordered to be served consecutively. However, the sentence was suspended and Petersen was placed on 36-months supervised probation.
Petersen pleaded no contest to the amended charges in July. He had originally been charged with electronic solicitation of a child.
He was arrested in January following an investigation by the Hiawatha Police Department.
