Annotate this Case
The Supreme Court reversed the sentence imposed upon Defendant in connection with his conviction of four counts of sexual assault in the first degree and three counts of risk of injury to a child, holding that the trial court improperly sentenced Defendant to a period of probation on each count of sexual assault, in violation of Conn. Gen. Stat. 53a-29(a).
After a jury trial, Defendant was found guilty of sexually abusing his daughter. The trial court sentenced Defendant to twenty-five years of imprisonment, execution suspended after twenty years, and ten years of probation on each count of sexual assault and ten years of imprisonment on each count of risk of injury to a child. The sentences were imposed concurrently. The Supreme Court affirmed the convictions but reversed the sentence, holding (1) the trial court improperly imposed a period of probation on each of Defendant's four sexual assault convictions; and (2) Defendant's challenges to his conviction failed.
