Good Citizen - Porn Charges

A 53-year old man who once was named Brainerd's Citizen Of The Year has been sentenced to five years supervised probation on child pornography charges.

Steven "Gus" Augustinack of Baxter was given a five-year prison sentence Thursday, but the judge stayed the sentence and placed him on probation.

Conditions include Augustinack serving six months in the Crow Wing County Jail, registering as a predatory offender, completing a sex offender evaluation and having no unsupervised contact with any girl under 16.

In March, Augustinack pleaded guilty to 18 counts of felony possession of pornographic computer videos involving a minor.  The jail time and probation were part of the plea agreement.

Last October, Augustinack was named the 2010 Brainerd Citizen Of The Year but declined the awarded after charges were filed.
