WYTV reports that former Y-103 morning show host Scott Kennedy will serve 51 months in Federal Prison. The former DJ was charged with having child pornography on his home computer and now will have to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life. Former co-workers, friends and business associates have sent letters on behalf of Kennedy asking for leniency which may explain why the sentence was reduced from a possible 10 years to 51 months. However, Federal Judge Alan Bloch said that “child pornography could not exist without people like the defendant who support it.” In addition, Kennedy of Hermitage must pay a $25,000 fine within 30 days. He has agreed to pay restitution to some victims.
