Abuser
against
treatment
ROSEBURG (AP) — A
convicted sex abuser has
chosen prison over a treat
ment program that includes
looking at pornography
because he doesn’t want to
sin any more.
Ron Paul Brown, 53, of
Glide was sentenced to 16
months in prison on Mon
day after turning down a
chance for probation that
includes a sex offender’s
treatment program.
Part of the program tests
a person's reaction to sex
ually explicit material to
see if they should remain
under treatment.
“1 don’t believe that 1, as
a Christian, can knowing
ly expose myself to pornog
raphy," Brown said at an
earlier court hearing.
Judge to rule in rape, kidnapping of teen-ager
COl.VU.Uv, Wash (AI’) — A judge will rule next month whether a
man who admitted raping a teen-ager in front of her mother will lie
sentenced under the stale’s new "three strikes" law.
An attorney representing Mil hael Elton Johnson. 35, said Tuesday
he will argue that Johnson has only two Class A felonies, one fewer
than necessary to qualify for a mandatory life sentence without
parole.
Johnson pleaded guilty Monday in Stevens County Superior Court
to two counts of first-degree rape and one of second-degree kidnap
ping Stevens County I’rosis utor Jerry Wetle said he will ask Supe
rior Court lodge Fred Stewart to sentence Johnson to life in prison as
a habitual violent criminal
A hearing scheduled Mari h - t before Stewart yvill determine
whether a judge or jury considers Johnson’s criminal background.
Sentem mg yvas tentatively scheduled April 6.
both Welle and publii defender John Troberg agreed that while the
intent of citizens who approved Initiative 593 last November is clear,
there is difficulty in implementing it
"The courts are going to have to take a look at the procedure."
Wetle said.
Troberg said the first issue he yvill raise in challenging Johnson's
potential sentence is the prix ess used to determine which prior i on

victions am counted toward the three "strikes."
"Under the old habitual criminal statute, the jury would make spe
cifh findings on prior history. Under the Sentencing Reform Act,
that's a function for the judge alone." Troberg said "Under Initiative
593, there is a complete void there."
Welle said he will ask for an exceptional sentence of nearly 70
years, should the three strikes law not apply in Johnson's case, or
lie overturned.
Johnson agreed to plead guilty in order to have some charges dis
missed and to spare the victims the trauma of a public trial, hut
retained the right to challenge the sentence, W'etle said
Troberg said he will contest inclusion of some of Johnson's prior
convictions and will appeal any sentence alune a standard range of
20-25 years.
In court Monday, he admitted raping the Springdale girl in her
home Christmas Day while her mother watt hed, then kidnapped the
girl and her mother the following day and raped the girl again in Lin
coln County.
As part of the plea agreement, tint Lincoln County rape and kid
napping charges would tie dropped, as well as a rape charge stem
ming from an accusation that he sexually assaulted a woman in
Waldport, Ore . last September
