Ohio Men Accept Plea Deal
KENTUCKY...
Two Ohio men, 20 year old Carlos Lamar Robinson and 20 year old Tajh Eugene Barton, both of Dayton, who are two of six accused of taking part in the sexual assault of a female inside a Hazard hotel last year have entered guilty pleas to amended charges of sexual misconduct, a Class A misdemeanor. During a pretrial conference, a plea deal was announced that would sentence them to 12 months, while 231 days of that time would be served, with the remainder served as supervised probation for 24 months. Other conditions of the agreement will require them to testify truthfully in other cases, stay away from the victim, and not return to Perry County. Robinson and Barton will return to court for a status hearing on May 13th, the date set for the jury trial for each of four remaining men. The trial will be held in Perry Circuit Court.
