Former Beauty Queen Pleads Guilty To Child Porn

NEWPORT BEACH (AP) — A former winner of California's "Mrs. Orange County" beauty pageant has pleaded guilty to possessing child pornography and lewd acts with a child.

County court records say 27-year-old Meghan Alt entered the pleas last Friday and was sentenced to 300 days in jail and three years of probation.

Prosecutors dismissed two additional charges of lewd acts with a child.

Alt was ordered to serve the jail sentence starting Friday.

She was arrested in 2015. Prosecutors said she sold images of a 4-year-old relative to a U.S. Marine.

Alt is from Irvine and has three children.

She was crowned Mrs. Orange County in 2014 and competed in the Mrs. California contest the same year.
