FLAGLER COUNTY, Fla. -

A 48-year-old Flagler Beach man was sentenced to 25 years in prison on Tuesday following convictions on more than a dozen counts of possession of child pornography.

Bert Knight pleaded no contest to 25 counts of possession of sexual performance of a child in November.

According to court documents, images found on Knight's computer featured children as young as 9 months old, and none older than 11 years old.

Knight's prison sentence will be followed by 100 years of sex offender probation.

A judge also ruled Knight cannot have contact with anyone under 18 years old, use computers and must register as a sex offender and provide a DNA sample to law enforcement.
