Sex Offender Gets Less Time Behind Bars

Although Taylor Lee Stewart was sentenced to six years for grabbing an inebriated woman in Isla Vista early this January and choking her with his belt, he will only serve eight months behind bars. Stewart pled guilty to assault with intent to commit rape and will have to register as a sex offender. Should he fail to comply with the terms and conditions of probation, Stewart would be remanded to state prison, where he’d serve out the remainder of his term.
