Dewayne E. Brooks, 48 of Abbeyville Road in Medina, entered pleas of guilty to three counts of Gross Sexual Imposition, a third degree felony, Thursday afternoon in Judge Kimbler's courtroom. Following the change of plea, Judge Kimbler imposed a five year prison sentence on all three counts, ordered that they be served concurrently, and also found that Mr. Brooks is a Tier II sex offender. As such, he will have to verify his address every six months for 25 years.
Originally Mr. Brooks was charged with five counts of rape. The charges were made by the daughter of an ex-girlfriend. The indictment alleged that the acts that led to the charges took place in 2007.
In exchange for Mr. Brooks agreeing to a five year prison sentence, the State agreed to amend three of the Rape charges to Gross Sexual Imposition and dismiss the two remaining charges. Prior to making this agreement, the State contacted the victim’s family who agreed to both the amendment of the charges and the sentence.
