Bad news for RecumbentRecycler!

Tim Logsdon was sentenced to 10 years in prison this afternoon, eligible for parole in 6.5 years, according to his brother Tom.

Tom will let us know what Tim's mailing address is as soon as he knows. I've helped clear out his apartment for the last few days and gotten to know his family. Obviously, they are all in shock. Tom reports that Tim's lawyer said that the judge, who is a woman newly assigned to his case, was unusually harsh.

Tim had agreed to a plea bargain to save his wife and children the strain of a trial. His lawyer had advised him that he would get more time if he forced it to trial and he lost.

I don't know what else to say at this point - I'm a little numb from the experience.

So he agreed to plead guilty without any assurances about the sentence? Wow, his lawyer led him into a bear trap there!

Never, never, NEVER plead guilty. Sheesh.

Receiving stolen property?

It sounds like all this was started by his wife getting a protection order.  He's so nice he wanted to protect his wife?

The other thread says the charges were for receiving stolen property (2 gun frames that were taken at the time of the initial protective order that his wife filed for).

10 years for receiving stolen property? OK, even coming from me that seems unbelievably extreme. And that was with the plea bargain?

I've met child molesters and Tim never seemed like one....and believe me, I'm hyper sensitive to the signs.

People told Russell he should have fought his ex in court over custody and stuff. THIS kind of thing is why he didn't.  They can just make up shit.

No comment.

If he didn't do it, he should have never 'copped' to it, even if it meant dragging the wife and kids to court.

QuoteIn a negotiated plea deal that reduced a possible sentence of 25 years to life, Logsdon admitted to touching his daughter's genitals and telling her to keep it a secret in exchange for promises of chocolates. The abuse began in July 2006 when the daughter was three and continued for two years, prosecutors said in Strafford County Superior Court.

Logsdon, 34, formerly of High Street, pleaded guilty to one charge of aggravated felonious sexual assault.

He pled guilty to a very explicit crime, for crap's sake.

But I guess in your minds he's an innocent victim since he didn't steal your power company bill money or something unforgivable like that.
