Sex offender sentenced to state prison
NORWICH – Chenango County Court convened for an afternoon session on Monday, July 11, where the case of Aaron J. Squires, 36 of Norwich, was heard.
Squires appeared with his appointed defense attorney, John Cameron. Assistant District Attorney Laura Parker represented the people of Chenango County in the case, while The Honorable Judge Frank B. Revoir Jr. presided over matters.
Based on an incident dating back to Jan. 26, 2016, Squires originally faced charges of the class E felony of rape in the third degree; the class E felony of incest in the third degree; and the class A misdemeanor of endangering the welfare of a child.
In a plea deal with the DA's Office, Squires agreed to enter a plea of guilty to the class E felony of rape in the third degree.
According to New York State Law, a person is guilty of rape in the third degree (the lowest degree of the offense) when he or she engages in sexual intercourse with another person who is incapable of consent by reason of some factor other than being less than 17 years old; or who is less than 17 years old, and the defendant is 21 years old or more; or without such person's consent, which is withheld for some other reason than incapacity to consent.
After Judge Revoir was satisfied with the defendant’s admissions of guilt, Parker was given a chance to speak on behalf of the people. She said, “The defendant put this victim through a lot of trauma. Rather than making the victim go through any more trauma, or a trial, we believe that this sentence is appropriate.”
Judge Revoir offered his thoughts before sentencing. “I hope you get the help you need, it doesn't look like you have thus far,” he said. “Many of these offenses are horrific, from anyone's perspective.”
Judge Revoir sentenced Squires to a determinate three-year term in the New York State Department of Corrections, with 10 years probation. An order of protection was also issued for the victim in the case for the maximum allowable time by law, set to expire in 2037.
As part of the conviction, Revoir also said that there is a high likelihood that Squires, who was already classified as a level one sex offender, may be reclassified and be determined to be a level two or level three offender.
A written waiver of appeal was signed at the conclusion of proceedings.
