Sentencing — presumptive minimum sentences

Alok Kumar appeals the judgment entered after he pled guilty to using a computer to facilitate a child sex crime, see Wis. Stat. § 948.075(lr), and the postconviction order denying his motion asking for sentence modification. Kumar claims that the circuit court erroneously exercised its sentencing discretion by imposing the presumptive minimum sentence, see Wis. Stat. § 939.617(1), when, he asserts, the circuit court should have imposed a sentence less than the presumptive minimum, see Wis. Stat. § 939.617(2). We affirm. Publication in the official reports is not recommended.
