Oxnard man gets two year state prison sentence, and must register as sex offender for life.

Prosecutors say a former high school track coast in Ventura County has been sentenced to two years in state prison after admitting sending sexual images of himself to a teenage student.

Aaron James Mora pled guilty to a charge of sending harmful material to a child, and admitted to special allegations in the case. The 25-year-old man was a coach at Oxnard’s Pacifica High School. The victim was a member of the team.

In addition to the two year state prison sentence, Mora will be required to register as a sex offender for life.
