Fallen star

Texas Monthly named Austin bankruptcy attorney Douglas Michael Stum among the “Rising Stars” in 2005.  On Monday, U.S. District Judge Lee Yeakel sentenced Stum to 10 years in prison for possession of materials involving the sexual exploitation of a minor.  Yeakel also ordered Stum to register as a sex offender and to be placed on 10 years of supervised release after his prison term. Matthew Devlin, the assistant U.S. attorney who prosecuted Stum, says Stum had more than 1,000 images of child pornography on his home computers.
