SALEM, Ore. -- Oregon Bar Member Neil Goldschmidt isn't the only member of the Oregon State Bar with a sexual desire for children.  Is there a pattern here?

A member of the Oregon Bar has been sentenced to nearly 11 years in prison after he was convicted of child pornography charges.

36-year-old Larry Reeves of Salem began downloading porn to his computer in 2002, the same year he was admitted to the Oregon State Bar.

His lawyer read a statement from Reeves in court Thursday apologizing to his family, friends, colleagues and the bar.

Reeves was convicted of 15 counts of encouraging child sex abuse in March. He was a defense attorney in Dallas before he was indicted in 2007
