(KNZA)--A Troy man convicted of sexual battery has been sentenced to six months in jail.
According to court documents, 24-year-old Hunter Artman was handed the sentence Thursday in Doniphan County District Court.
He pleaded no contest to the misdemeanor charge earlier this month. In exchange for the plea, a felony count of rape was dismissed.
Artman was accused of sexually assaulting a woman in April 2019.
He was charged in February 2023 following an investigation by the Doniphan County Sheriff's Office.
Following his hearing Thursday, Artman was ordered to surrender to the Doniphan County Jail to begin serving his jail sentence.
