GETTYSBURG, Pa. (WHTM) — A man who sent a Facebook message reading “So I raped you” to a woman he had sexually assaulted in college in 2013 was sentenced to two to four years in prison on Monday.
The sentence came more than a year after Ian Cleary was extradited back to Pennsylvania from France over the assault at Gettysburg College and nearly 12 years after the victim first went to police.
The judge took into account Cleary’s guilty plea, his remorse and his long history of mental illness in giving a sentence below state guidelines. Cleary, 32, said he sent the messages as part of a 12-step program, in hopes of seeking atonement.
Cleary will also have to comply with sex offender conditions, court records show. • Sexual assault suspect Ian Cleary departs from the Adams County Court Ho
