A former Walt Disney World employee charged in a federal child pornography case was sentenced to four years in prison Tuesday, court records show.

Patrick McKenzie of St. Cloud was working as a janitorial supervisor for Disney when he was arrested last year.

According to McKenzie's plea agreement, when investigators arrived at his home in March 2010, a video depicting child pornography was playing on a laptop in his room.

Investigators eventually found more than 600 images and nine videos depicting child pornography on McKenzie's computer. The majority of the images depicted children younger than five years old, his plea agreement said.

McKenzie pleaded guilty in November to a count of possessing child pornography.

In addition to serving time in federal prison, McKenzie was also sentenced to 10 years supervised release. He can have no direct contact with children, and computer and media restrictions were imposed.

He was a "current" employee when he was arrested.

He was a "current" employee when he was arrested.

Glad he's in prison. Don't see the reason that Disney was mentioned except to sell papers. I mean, its another issue if we had been watching the porn while at work, otherwise the only relevance is that he was around kids because of being a cast member.

That seems like a heck of a plea deal... 4 years? He needs a lot of longer for that.
