HOT SPRINGS, S.D. – A Hot Springs business owner was sentenced to five years in federal prison, followed by five years of supervised release, on Thursday for attempted receipt of child pornography.
U.S. District Judge Jeffrey Viken sentenced Brian Lynn Spitzer,58, to the mandatory minimum of five years.
Spitzer, the owner of Spitzer Construction in Hot Springs, was arrested in January 2021 after communicating with two different undercover agents posing as teenage girls.
The court required Spitzer to undergo sex offender treatment when he is placed on supervised release. Viken also ordered Spitzer to pay a routine $100 assessment to the Federal Crime Victims Fund, an amount required for each felony federal conviction. He will also have to pay a $5,000 assessment under the Victims of Trafficking and Violence Protection Act.
