PORTLAND, Ore. (AP) -- An Oregon man who federal prosecutors said had the largest collection of child pornography they have ever found in the state has been sentenced to 15 years in prison.

Dewey Burr of Hillsboro pleaded guilty last March to distribution of child pornography after his arrest last year.

The FBI said investigators found 1.1 million images of child pornography on his computer, including graphic images of babies and toddlers being sexually abused.

Federal prosecutors said the 51-year-old Burr admitted that he viewed and traded child pornography on a daily basis and had been collecting images for a long time.

Burr was sentenced Wednesday in U.S. District Court in Portland.
