A former Peoria High School coach and Phoenix Suns superfan was sentenced Friday after pleading guilty to one count of sexual exploitation of a minor and two counts of attempted sexual exploitation of a minor.
Patrick Battillo was sentenced to 3.5 years in prison, and was also sentenced to lifetime supervised probation as well as having to register as a sex offender. Battillo was credited with 61 days time served prior to sentencing.
