Ex-School Employee Keaton Battle Sentenced On Sex Charges
DOTHAN, Ala. -- A former employee at a school in Dothan has been sentenced to 18 years in jail after he was accused of attempted sodomy and enticing a child.
The Dothan Eagle reports that 37-year-old Keaton Battle of Donalsonville, Ga., was sentenced to nine years on charges of enticing a child for immoral purposes and attempted second-degree sodomy. He got an additional nine years after being convicted of enticing a child.
Battle was found guilty of the charges last month.
