In July a jury found him guilty of having sex with an underage girl. Friday the former Nebraska police officer is sentenced to 30–to–60 years in prison.
Larry Williams was sentenced Friday in Buffalo County District Court for first–degree sexual assault of a child and five counts of first–degree sexual assault.
Prosecutors said Williams was sexually involved with the girl between 2001 and 2003 beginning when she was only 14 years old.
Williams was a Ravenna police officer at the time.
He resigned from the department in 2005. Two previous trials ended in hung juries.
Williams' attorney said Williams is asking for a new trial, alleging among other reasons that the jury's verdict wasn't supported by the evidence.
