The husband of a rural southeast Nebraska woman missing since April last year has been given several prison terms in an unrelated case.

On Thursday, Judge Daniel Bryan Jr. of Gage County District Court sentenced William Kelley to five years on each of two counts of child abuse, five years on each of two counts of being a felon possessing a firearm and 20-60 months for lying on a firearm application.

After a plea agreement, a sex-assault charge was lowered to child abuse and the felony and misdemeanor drug charges were dropped.

Kelley's wife, Ann Kelley, disappeared April 15, 2008, after she dropped her four children off in Beatrice.

William Kelley has not been charged in connection with her disappearance.

The children are staying with relatives.
