Former North Dakota Senator Ray Holmberg, 81, will be sentenced for traveling to Europe with the intent to pay for sex with minors. Prosecutors are seeking a three-year prison sentence and lifetime supervised release, citing his exploitation of vulnerable boys and young men over decades. Holmberg pleaded guilty to traveling with intent to engage in illicit sexual activity and faces up to 30 years in prison and a $250,000 fine. His attorney requests a lighter sentence due to his age and health.
