Mark Salling entered into a plea deal last October, avoiding a lengthier prison sentence of up to 20 years.
He was arrested in 2015 after a tip-off that he was in possession of images of children being abused.

Mark Salling’s body was found in woodland near to where he lived in Sunland, Los Angeles, media reports suggest.
