A man who was acquitted of two sex crimes in September but convicted of furnishing alcohol to a teen girl and unlawfully hosting minors consuming alcohol was sentenced on Wednesday to six months in jail, which was suspended to probation.
The defendant, Wyatt Farrow, who was 19 at the time of the February 2022 incident, had faced two felony counts of aggravated criminal sodomy, two counts of furnishing alcohol to a minor and one count of hosting minors consuming alcohol. A Douglas County jury found him not guilty of all but one count of furnishing alcohol and one count of hosting minors, both misdemeanors.
As the Journal-World reported, the state had argued — unsuccessfully — that Farrow had planned an illicit alcohol-fueled sexual encounter between his little brother and a girl, both 17, during a sleepover at the brothers’ family home.
On Wednesday, Judge Amy Hanley sentenced Farrow to six months in jail for each misdemeanor, to run concurrently, suspended to 12 months of probation. He was also ordered to pay $1,200 in fines.
His attorney, Cooper Overstreet, who had described the case as “madness” and “nonsense” during the trial, filed a notice of appeal on Wednesday for both the convictions and the sentence.
Farrow’s father, Anthony Farrow, was also convicted last year of hosting the minors as they consumed alcohol in the family home.
