Man jailed for 4 years in Boy Scout's molesting

10/10/2008

BOWLING GREEN A former scoutmaster who molested a boy in his pack was sentenced yesterday to four years in prison.

Terry Wallace, 45, of Portage, Ohio, also was placed on community-control sanctions for five years after his release from prison.

Wood County Common Pleas Judge Alan Mayberry also ordered Wallace to perform 300 hours of community service and to have no contact with the victim or anyone under 18 without consent from his probation officer.

Wallace pleaded guilty in August to two counts of importuning and one count each of gross sexual imposition and compelling prostitution for incidents involving an 11-year-old boy between January, 2006, and February, 2007.

Four other felonies were dismissed as part of a plea agreement.
