Man who tied up, sexually assaulted 14-year-old girl will serve no jail time
Source: TRIBUNE MEDIA WIRE
CHESTERFIELD COUNTY, Va. A former Virginia high school student who sexually assaulted a 14-year-old girl will serve no active prison time, a judge ruled Wednesday. Logan Michael Osborn, 19, pleaded guilty in September to the charge of having carnal knowledge of the girl. At the time, he was sentenced to 10 years in prison, with eight years suspended.
In early January, Chesterfield Circuit Court Judge T.J. Hauler decided to pause the two-year term, saying that he wanted more time to review the case. On Wednesday, he declined to reinstate the original sentence.
The family is disappointed that the defendant will not serve any active incarceration for the brutal attack on the victim, Chesterfield prosecutor Erin Barr told the Richmond Times-Dispatch. They do not believe justice has been served and shared concern for community safety and future potential victims.
Osborn, then a student at Cosby High School, sexually assaulted the 14-year-old girl after they attended a school play together. Prosecutors said Osborn went on a walk with the girl, who didn't know the Cosby campus, and when the path ended at a fence, Osborn became aggressive.

Just your daily reminder that this is the same state that gave SIX(!) life sentences to a 15-year-old for armed robbery (and yes, he's still serving today)

(5,803 posts)In 2016, he rejected the state of Virginia's request to deny the release of convicted rapist Dana William.
William had been convicted of raping his ex-girlfriend and accused of raping several other women.
Within weeks of his release, William had murdered his ex's father, strangling him to death, and abducted her mom. In January 2016, he killed himself as police closed in. His ex's mom was found dead nearby.

"The judge (not Hauler) who accepted Williams rape and abduction plea agreement in 2013 clearly didnt have much choice. The court documents show William called his victim repeatedly from jail, trying to get her to change her story.
The victim didnt want to testify, even though there was plenty of evidence. She apparently didnt even want him convicted of rape.
Lacking that crucial evidence, the prosecution and the defense agreed to a 40-year sentence with 38 years suspended."
