abuse of a vulnerable adult

Richard Allan Dangel is charged with a single count of abuse of a vulnerable adult. If convicted, he could face up to 10 years behind bars, $10,000 in fines or both.

Officials say Bethea was also sentenced Tuesday to 10 years of probation, fined more than $3,000 and required to pay back the money.

When police went inside, they found the man lying on the ground.

A care provider gave officers several incident reports detailing events in which Bauer allegedly grabbed the victim by his hair in order to make him stand up straight.

Bauer's attorney, Marty Scott, said she was prepared to enter a guilty plea Thursday morning.

Trae Smith is in custody on a $100,000 cash bond.

The victim said that Brown pulled her pants halfway down and touched her breasts.

The verdict was read shortly after 8 p.m. Friday.
