Joseph Marlow was found guilty Friday of aggravated indecent liberties by a jury in Riley County District Court. He was acquitted of his remaining charges.
Marlow, 26, of Manhattan was convicted early Friday afternoon of one count of aggravated indecent liberties with a child under 14 years old. He was found not guilty of a second count of the same charge as well as two counts of aggravated criminal sodomy of a child under 14 years old.
The victim was a girl Marlow knew who was five years old at the time of the crime. Last March he was in the same bed as the girl when he touched her buttocks underneath her clothing.
