135-year term awaits man for rape, pandering

CINCINNATI (AP) -- A man who was arrested for making a child porn tape after investigators traced a television news program playing in the background was sentenced to 135 years in prison.
Daniel Ostenkamp, 33, of Cincinnati was sentenced Friday by Hamilton County Common Pleas Judge Steve Martin on eight counts of rape and 11 counts of pandering sexually oriented matter involving a minor.
He was charged with sexually molesting a boy over three years and pleaded guilty April 27.
The trail started with U.S. Customs stopping an illegal immigrant from Austria while he was in Polk County, Fla.
An examination of his computer led authorities to a Polk County man, whose computer turned up photos and videos of Ostenkamp having sex with a 12-year-old boy, authorities have said.
Florida detectives enhanced a television news broadcast playing in the background of the sex tape, saw a story about a crime, and traced that to Cincinnati.
Then they called the Hamilton County sheriff's office.
The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children identified the boy in the tape.
He and other boys led authorities to Ostenkamp.
