Cole County Circuit Judge Patricia Joyce sent two men to prison this week for their involvement in separate, sex-related crimes.
Antoine G. Terry, now 18, 1015-A Elizabeth St., will serve seven years in prison.
A jury convicted Terry after a Feb. 6 trial on his indictment for statutory rape, for having intercourse with a 12-year-old girl on several occasions between May 1 and Aug. 11, 2007. The original probable cause statement said Terry told police the victim said she was 15.
James Lee Peterson, 27, Hannibal, will serve three years in prison following his guilty plea to an indictment for exposing himself online to a child he believed to be under 14, on Jan. 2, 2007.
Joyce also sentenced:
* Toriano Ladarrly Leavell, 36, 616 Michigan St., to eight years, following his guilty plea to an indictment for distributing cocaine on Jan. 4, 2007.
* Gregory T. Howard, 35, St. Louis, to four years in prison, for pleading guilty Monday to a 1:43 a.m. burglary at the Bee Line Snack Shop, 1100 Missouri Blvd., on Aug. 31, 2007.
* Angela M. Roark, 30, New Bloomfield, to two years after pleading guilty to passing a bad, $243 check on Oct. 3, 2007, at Central Missouri Athletics, on a non-existent account. Her sentence is to run at the same time as other sentences, including her five-year federal sentence for being involved in an identity theft scheme involving state prison inmates, mentally disabled and other residents of group homes in Jefferson City and Columbia, Sprint customers and Missourians whose information was stolen by two Revenue Department employees.
* Jessica L. Jaffari, 43, 1233-A E. Dunklin St., to three years, for her guilty plea to stealing a computer and television set from a neighbor, on Nov. 21, 2007. She also will serve two years, at the same time, for assaulting a police officer while she was being arrested in the case, and she was sentenced to six months jail time for kicking a police officer during the arrest.
Joyce also ordered five-year probation terms, following the successful completion of 120-day shock prison sentences for:
* Justin I. Morton, 32, Taos, following his guilty plea to driving while intoxicated at 1:33 a.m. on Nov. 17, 2007, in the 1200 block of Jefferson Street, and after his probation was revoked in a Dec. 19, 2003, DWI case. Joyce suspended the execution of a three-year sentence in the 2007 case.
* Shayne Stephen Alber, 29, Centralia, for his guilty plea to driving while his license was revoked, on July 8, 2007, in the 200 block of East McCarty Street. Joyce suspended the execution of a two-year prison sentence.
Samuel N. Allen, 30, 1227-A E. High St., must serve five years probation if he successfully completes 60 days shock time following his guilty pleas to domestic assault, for punching his former girlfriend in the face on Jan. 1, 2007, after ramming her car and driving recklessly around it, also endangering the welfare of his child and three others in the woman's car; and unlawful use of a weapon, by carrying a concealable pistol on Oct. 6, 2007, when he'd been out of prison less than five years on an involuntary manslaughter conviction.
Joyce suspended the execution of three-year prison terms in each case.
Joyce also ordered probation terms for:
* Richard Kaine Morton, 25, Cartuale, Texas, five years each after guilty pleas in two cases - stealing $810 from the Fairfield Inn, 3621 W. Truman Blvd., by taking a room Jan. 19 and saying the charges should be billed to another business, and for bribery of a public servant by offering $100 to a police officer who'd stopped a vehicle Morton was riding in, at 1:22 a.m. in the 1600 block of Missouri Boulevard.
Joyce suspended the imposition of any sentence in both cases.
* Todd S. Rose, 37, Meta, five years, after suspending the execution of a four-year prison sentence for his guilty plea to resisting arrest on Sept. 27, 2007, after a Highway Patrol trooper tried to make a traffic stop. Rose sped away, at speeds up to 85 mph in a 60 mph zone, before wrecking his car on Loesch Road and trying to run away on foot, court records said.
* Vernon Love Alexander, 20, 328 E. Dunklin St., five years, after suspending the imposition of any sentence following his guilty plea to selling a powder as though it were cocaine, on Jan. 16, 2007.
* Cynthia L. Cummings, 50, Holts Summit, five years, following her guilty plea to identity theft in February 2007. Officials said she got fraudulent credit cards and used them to buy about $6,000 in exercise equipment, a television and other electronics.
* Jesse Eli McCallum, 25, five years following his completion of a long-term in-prison drug treatment program. Joyce sentenced him on Sept. 11, 2007, to four years in prison for possessing heroin on Dec. 7, 2006.
* Anthony Michael Unger, 20, five years following his completion of a 120-day shock prison term ordered in January, for several violations of his original probation. Unger pled guilty July 10, 2006, to a March 26, 2006, burglary and attempted robbery at an apartment in the 3700 block of Randall Drive.
* Georgia Jeane Benson, 54, Olathe, Kan., four years, following the suspended execution of a two-year sentence for possessing methamphetamine on Aug. 3, 2007, while she was driving on the Algoa Prison Road. She also must pay a $100 fine for driving while her license was suspended.
She must serve a 20-day shock sentence, using electronic shackles, before her probation begins.
