Former deputy gets 40 years for producing child porn

A former Milwaukee County Sheriff's sergeant who drugged, molested and filmed young girls during camping trips to a trailer park in Campbellsport was sentenced Friday to 40 years in federal prison for producing child pornography. Phillip Wentzel, 41, of West Allis must serve another 10 years of supervision if he makes it to the end of his prison term. Wentzel, who also once served as spokesman for the sheriff's office, pleaded guilty in September to six counts of child pornography production, and to a seventh count this week, each involving different victims. He was charged in May. Full Story: Milwaukee Journal Sentinel
