Sentencing for former coach in child sex case scheduled for Friday
HUTCHINSON, Kan. — The 21-year-old man who was coaching at Trinity Catholic School in Hutchinson and entered a “guilty” plea to one count aggravated indecent liberties with a child is scheduled to be sentenced Friday .
The charge against Patrick Kent Blevins falls under Jessica’s Law meaning life sentence with no chance of parole for 25-years.
The arrest coming from incidents with a number of boys under the age of 14 after an investigation by Hutchinson Police. The incidents involving the six boys occurring between January 2012 and March of this year.
District Attorney Keith Schroeder agreed to the plea, so the the boys wouldn’t have to testify and also because even the one counts sends him away to prison for at least 25-years.
Blevins also waived his right to appeal any lawful sentence, but the sentence in Jessica’s Law cases are set with the life sentence.
Schroeder had indicated earlier that none of the incidents occurred at any school or during any school activity.
The sentencing is scheduled in front of Judge Joe McCarville.
Non-injury accident lands Wichita woman in jail
HUTCHINSON, Kan. – A 30-year-old Wichita woman was arrested just after 6 p.m., Wednesday evening on various charges after her vehicle collided with another in the 500 block of East 23 rd, however she was arrested in the 2600 block of North Main in Hutchinson.
Monique Ginn is charged with possession of PCP also known as angel dust, possession of drug paraphernalia, DUI, failing to give information on the accident, failing to report the accident, driving while suspended, no insurance and an expired tag.
Her vehicle collided with another driven by 33-year-old Nicole Mesa of Hutchinson. Neither driver was hurt according to police.
Ginn is jailed on a bond of $4,650 and appeared in court this morning, but may have still been under the influence of some substance because through the video from the jail, she didn’t appear to understand what was going on with her bond. Magistrate Judge Randy McEwen decided to continue her case until next Wednesday. Perhaps by then, she’ll have a better grasp as to what is going on. Her bond remains the same.
