Idaho v. Dabney
Annotate this CaseDefendant Darrien Dabney forcibly sodomized two six-year-old boys. At the time, Defendant was a developmentally disabled eighteen-year-old and had been living with the boys’ family less than a month. He had previously resided in foster care in Virginia. He appealed the sentence he received, the trial court’s order relinquishing jurisdiction after a period of retained jurisdiction because there was no community-based facility that could provide appropriate treatment for the defendant and security for the protection of the community; and the court’s order denying a motion to reduce the sentence. Finding no reversible error, the Supreme Court affirmed.
