BRADENTON, Florida - A Florida teen who posted a nude photo of his younger ex-girlfriend on her MySpace page was sentenced to 30 days in jail.

Anthony D. Rich, 19, was 17 when he posted the photo on the social networking Web site after he and his then 15-year-old girlfriend broke up.

Prosecutors reduced the charges from sex crimes that could have branded Rich a sex offender for life.

Rich pleaded no contest Tuesday to child abuse and attempted child abuse. He is expected to begin his sentence in October.
