watch video
 A McKean County man has been sentenced three to ten years in prison after pleading guilty to charges that he traveled to Erie to sexually solicit a young girl.

47-year old James Whitman of Bradford was arrested in early December after allegedly using a Yahoo internet chatroom to proposition a person he believed was a 13-year old girl.

That girl was actually an undercover agent from the Attorney General's Child Predator Unit.

Today, Judge Ernest DiSantis sentenced Whitman and also determined that Whitman will not be designated as a sexually violent predator.
