(KNZA)--A former Doniphan County Sheriff's deputy convicted on five child-sex related charges has been sentenced to 9 years and 10 months in prison.
35-year-old Nathaniel Keller was handed the sentence last week in Doniphan County District Court.
A Doniphan County jury in September found Keller guilty of criminal sodomy, three counts of aggravated indecent liberties with a child and furnishing alcohol to a minor for illicit purposes.
He was acquitted on a charge of promoting obscenity to minors.
Keller was charged with sex crimes occurring between May and December 2017 involving a girl who was 14 years old at the time.
He was arrested in June 2021 after Kansas Bureau of Investigation agents served a search warrant on his home.
