Repeat offender gets lengthy prison term

By Scott Harvey

Paris – A Paris man has been sentenced to 40 years in prison after pleading guilty to indecency with a child. 42-year-old Jeffery Lynn Nichols had also been found in possession of child pornography.

The investigation began when Nichols pawned a computer and employees found child porn images on it and notified police. He later admitted taking the pictures.

In 2000, Nichols was also convicted in Tarrant County for indecency with a child.
