Jurors reach a guilty verdict in a child sex abuse case in Jackson County. The jury deliberated for just half an hour before finding 39-year-old Patrick Ewart guilty of taking indecent liberties with a child. The charges involved a girl who was 15-years-old at the time of the offense. Ewart was given a suspended sentence of at least 16 months and ordered to serve 30 days active time. He must also undergo treatment and register as a sex offender.
