A New Hampshire man has been sentenced to more than five years in federal prison for possessing child pornography.

Court documents say police executed a search warrant last year at the home of 71-year-old David Maclean, of Swanzey. A review of electronic devices found in the home showed that they contained images and videos of child pornography.
    
Authorities said the investigation began in July 2017 with the Maricopa County Sheriff's Department Cyber Crimes Unit in Phoenix, Arizona. Maclean previously lived there.
    
Maclean had pleaded guilty to possessing child pornography. As part of his 63-month sentence, he was ordered to pay restitution to the victims depicted in the images.
