(KNZA)--Nearly 4-years in prison.
That's the sentence handed down for a Holton man accused of the attempted strangulation and rape of a Holton woman.
Jackson County Attorney Shawna Miller tells MSC News Manual Juarez-Benito was sentenced on a charge of aggravated battery.
He pleaded guilty to that charge in October as part of a plea-agreement, that meant the dismissal of seven other charges, including attempted first-degree murder and rape.
Juarez-Benito was arrested February 9th after officers responded to a domestic incident at a Holton residence involving an alleged attempted strangulation. The victim sustained non-life threatening injuries. The victim also testified during a preliminary hearing in May that Juarez-Benito had allegedly raped her several times between April 1st and September 30th of last year.
