PITTSBURGH — Rob Black, Lizzy Borden and their company, Extreme Associates, pleaded guilty before U.S. District Judge Gary L. Lancaster to one count each of conspiracy to distribute obscene materials. Sentencing is scheduled for July 1.

A federal grand jury indicted the couple in August 2003 on 10 counts of conspiracy to defraud the U.S. mailing obscene or crime-inducing matters and transporting obscene matter for sale.

Prosecutors charged them in 2003 with distributing videos through the mail and images over the Internet to western Pennsylvania.

A judge dismissed charges in January 2005, finding prosecutors improperly applied obscenity statutes, but an appeals court reinstated the charges. Black and Borden face up to five years in prison and a $250,000 fine. The company faces up to five years probation and a $500,000 fine.
