A former Council Bluffs doctor was found guilty this (Tuesday) morning in Pottawattamie County District Court, of an amended charge of felony Lascivious Acts with a Child. The Daily NonPareil reports up until 4th District Court Judge Richard Davidson handed down the sentence against 69-year old Dennis Seaborn Jones, Jones maintained his innocence.

Davidson then sentenced Jones to the maximum of 10 years in prison, which Jones will serve concurrently with a 10-year federal sentence on child pornography charges he was sentenced to on Friday. Concurrently means the two sentences will be served at the same time.

Authorities say they found about 1.2 million images and 9,300 videos of child pornography during a search of Jones’ home. Court documents say other images and videos showed patients at Jones’ medical clinic that were taken secretly with a pen camera. In the case Tuesday, Jones was accused of sexually assaulting a girl outside his pediatrics practice.
