Trial of admitted rapist delayed

New York City man Daniel Lee Brewer was arrested in 2010 and charged with the rape that Eddie Lowery was wrongfully convicted of, as well as another rape that occurred in Ogden in 1981. In July, Brewer pleaded no contest to one charge and guilty to the other.

However, sentencing has been delayed and a new sentencing date has not yet been set, said Jeff Wagaman, spokesman for the Kansas Attorney General’s Office, which handled the prosecution of Brewer. Brewer suffers from a whole host medical problems, including kidney failure and requires daily dialysis treatments.
