SOUTH BEND — A Mishawaka man has been sentenced to two years in prison after pleading guilty to child solicitation in connection with on-line chats he had over a period of months with an undercover officer posing as a 13-year-old girl.

A St. Joseph County Superior Court judge also ordered Kevin Meehan, 31, to serve two years of probation upon his release from prison.

Meehan pleaded guilty as charged earlier this month. He had sexually graphic on-line conversations with an undercover officer from January to April 2007.
