This linked story says he got one year, so I'm guessing the rest is parole.

"A US jury has sentenced 59 year-old Oklahoma judge, Donald D. Thompson, to one year in prison for using a penis pump on the bench during three murder trials and a civil case."

The way I understood it, the judge was found guilty on 4 counts.

The jury recommended a sentence of one year in prison and a $10,000 fine on each count. The jury foreman has said it was the jury's intent that Thompson serve the full sentence.

That's four years.
