Timothy L. Raab, 50, Bismarck, was sentenced Monday before U.S. District Court Chief Judge Daniel L. Hovland on a charge of receipt of materials involving the sexual exploitation of minors, according to U.S. Attorney Drew H. Wrigley.

Raab pleaded guilty to the charge on April 27.

Hovland sentenced Raab to serve five years and three months in federal prison, to be followed by five years of supervised release. Raab was ordered to pay a $100 special assessment to the Crime Victim’s Fund and must register as a sex offender. In July 2008, law enforcement personnel received a search warrant for Raab’s computer. The computer was found to have numerous videos representing thousands of images depicting the sexual exploitation of children.
