BUFFALO, N.Y. (WIVB) - A 45-year-old man who admitted taking sexual pictures of a teenage girl will spend the next 20 years in federal prison.

Prosecutors say between October 1998 and August 2001, Paul Hackett of Buffalo took 16 Polaroid pictures of a girl, beginning when she was 15 until she was 17-years-old. The U.S. Attorney's Office says Hackett coerced and enticed his victim into posing for the images, which were found in Hackett's home in October 2011.

On Tuesday, Hackett was sentenced to 20 years in prison and a lifetime of supervised release.
