RHINELANDER, Wis. (AP) — A Rhinelander doctor has pleaded no contest to possessing child pornography.

Bruce Jacobson will avoid a jury trial by reaching a deal with prosecutors in Oneida County. The 52-year-old physician was arrested in December 2011 by Oneida County sheriff's deputies.

Jacobson resigned from Ministry Health Care earlier this year. WSAW-TV says he faces a maximum sentence of 25 years in prison.
