Ex agent Brad Ames sentenced to 12 years of prison, $270k in fines for child pornography

Prosecutors said Ames paid a man from Georgia to video-record sexual encounters with underage boys and send him the pornographic videos

Former basketball agent Brad Ames has been ordered to pay a combined $270k in restitution and fines in addition to 12-year prison terms imposed last November for child pornography, as reported by the Chicago Tribune.

US District Judge Robert Dow also ordered Brad Ames to be on probation for eight years after his release from prison.

Ames admitted to enticing an underage boy to engage in sex.

The Chicago Tribune reports that Ames must also pay restitution of $35.000 to each of seven victims as well as a fine of $25.000.

Prosecutors said Ames paid a man from Georgia to video-record sexual encounters with underage boys and send him the pornographic videos.

Ames pleaded guilty in February to a single count of enticing an underage boy to engage in sexual activity but admitted to the broader misconduct.
