Man Gets 4 Years for Sending Strippers to Neighbors

A Nebraska man has been sentenced to four years in prison for sending prostitutes to strip on his neighbor's front porch dozens of times over a three-year period. The Omaha World-Herald reports that 45-year-old Douglas Goldsberry of Elkhorn was sentenced Friday in Douglas County District Court after pleading no contest in September to pandering. Authorities say Goldsberry hired prostitutes to bare their breasts and strip on his neighbor's porch while he watched from his kitchen and masturbated.

The neighbors, a married couple who live across the street from Goldsberry, said women had shown up as many as 75 times since 2013, exposing themselves and sometimes kicking the door and yelling for payment, waking the couple's two small children, the AP reports. Solicitation charges against Goldsberry were dismissed as part of a plea deal; under state guidelines, he will serve less than two years of his sentence, with credit for 177 days already spent in jail. But his legal troubles are far from over: Investigators found evidence of child pornography on his computer. He has been indicted in federal court for possession of child pornography and faces up to 20 years in prison if convicted.
