Former reality TV star Josh Duggar returned to federal court on Wednesday, where a judge sentenced him to 12.5 years in prison for a child pornography conviction.

Judge Timothy L. Brooks sentenced Duggar to a total of 151 months behind bars. Prosecutors were seeking a maximum 20-year sentence for Duggar, while his lawyers asked that he be sent to prison for five years.

According to People magazine, Duggar’s father, Jim Bob, and wife, Anna, sat in the court’s front row as his sentencing was handed down.

According to the publication, when he wasn’t taking notes on Wednesday he often turned and smiled at his wife. Duggar, whose large family was the focus of TLC’s reality show “19 Kids and Counting”, was convicted of downloading and possessing child pornography in December of last year. (On Wednesday, one count of his December conviction was dropped, and Duggar was sentenced on one charge of knowingly receiving and possessing child pornography.)
