HUTCHINSON, Kan. — A Hutchinson man made a court appearance Friday morning for the reading of a single charge in a child sex case from last year.
Branden A. Marohl is charged with a single count of aggravated indecent liberties with a child for alleged inappropriate sexual relations with a 14-year-old child. The alleged crime occurred back on Aug. 20, 2015.
He’s just now appearing after apparently being held at the Larned Juvenile Facility in another matter.
With the charge filed, the case will move to a waiver-status docket on June 1. He remains jailed on a $15,000 bond. If convicted, he could face a maximum sentence of over 20 years in prison.
