Former Police Chief Pleads Guilty to Sexual Abuse

Former Police Chief John Brown agreed to the plea deal in Saline County in exchange for his sentence being reduced from 25 to 15 years.
Brown admitted in a one-sentence note that he inappropriately touched a 15-year-old girl in July 2003.
Brown had been appealing his 2004 conviction in the case when he agreed to the deal. His attorney could not be reached for comment. Under the new sentence he could be eligible for parole next December.
Deputy prosecutor Brian Clary says the deal was offered to bring closure to the victim and her family and to avoid further appeals.

Ok, first of all, we all know that Roger is always full of sarcasm. Secondly, being a former police chief, I don't think his sentence was harsh enough!
