GREEN BAY, WI (WSAU) — A Wausau woman has taken a plea deal regarding federal child pornography charges.
Natalie Ticho, 25, reached a plea deal in a Green Bay courtroom on Wednesday. As part of the plea deal, Ticho pleaded guilty to one count of distribution of child pornography. Prosecutors say that Ticho distributed sexually explicit images of a 7-year-old and engaged in conversations online about child pornography with an undercover law enforcement officer.
The undercover operation into the incident was conducted by the FBI, the U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Eastern District of Wisconsin, and the Winnebago County Sheriff’s Office as part of Operation Kick Boxer.
Ticho will be sentenced for the charge on October 12th. As part of the plea deal, officials say she will serve a 90-month federal prison sentence and must register as a sexual offender.
