A former Florida police sergeant was sentenced to 120 years in federal prison for making and possessing child pornography, including images downloaded on his patrol car's computer.

U.S. District Judge Timothy Corrigan on Thursday sentenced former Live Oak police Sgt. Kyle Adam Kirby after a jury found him guilty of producing, possessing and accessing images of child sexual abuse.

Federal prosecutors say the 37-year-old Kirby used his patrol car's computer to download child pornography dating back to December 2014.

They also say Kirby used concealed cameras to film unsuspecting minors and transferred the pictures to his police computer.

Kirby was also found to have used secret cameras to film minors without their knowledge, and the LOPD found images of nude and partially undressed children in at least three different bathrooms on Kirby's desktop computer.

Prosecutors say Kirby tried to delete the files, but his attempt was unsuccessful.

Live Oak Police Chief Alton 'Buddy' Williams said in a statement that Kirby was a trusted friend who betrayed the public and his family.

'I have been in law enforcement for 30 years, and this has been the most difficult situation I have faced. A trusted friend, officer and protector of the public betrayed all facets of the job he swore to do. I realize that mistakes happen, but this was no mistake it was a choice, a choice that has impacted not only his agency, but his trusted friends, family, and community to include all brothers and sisters of the badge. I am appreciative of the FBI, the U.S Attorney’s Office and all others involved. Justice did prevail,' Chief Williams said.

'This case is another example of the relentless efforts of the FBI and our law enforcement partners to identify those who prey on our children,' said Charles P. Spencer, Special Agent in Charge of the FBI Jacksonville Division. 'It is made even more egregious having been committed by someone who swore to uphold the law and protect the community. Let it be known that the FBI will stop at nothing to protect innocent victims, and seek justice for the heinous acts committed against them.'
