Two Van Buren County men who were once licensed as foster parents will each spend 30 years in prison for making and receiving child pornography.
Kurt Amundson and Robert Shafer pleaded guilty earlier this year to taking lewd pictures of a young boy and downloading child pornography. Indictments stated the men took sexually explicit pictures of the victim over a two-year period.
Cameras and computers containing downloaded child pornography were seized from the couple's home in Hartford.
State officials confirm the couple's foster license was suspended earlier this year when the investigation began. The men had been licensed since June 2002, first through Lutheran Social Services of Kent County, and later through the agency's Kalamazoo branch.
