Man Of Casper Gets 40 years

Man of Casper gets 40 years

After sexually abusing a child in Casper, WY, a man is put away.

When information about the defendant Daniel Anthony Taylor as well as his less than desirable childhood incidents came about, the case may have changed but on that day, it made no difference.

As the conviction judge, Judge Thomas Sullins, stated about this case that it is more important about the effects upon the 6-year-old victim as well as her family.

"We have a very young girl who has been tremendously impacted by the crime in this case" Sullins said Tuesday

The prosecutors upon this case suggested a minimum of no less than 35 years in the state pen. As the sentencing went on, the judge decided upon more than what was previously suggested of which rarely occurs. The turn out of the sentencing wound up being a total of 50-60 years behind bars.
Before he made his sentencing recommendation the Assistant District Attorney Joshua Stensaas displayed to the judge two photos that had previously been drawn by the victim. One of these photos included words that Taylor had used during the assault "Do you like it?" The second was a jumbled mess of purple scribbles which ended up standing as a symbol of the confusion that the small child was forced to go through after.

Stensaas said the girl was a "little hero" due to the fact that she wound up reporting the assault.

Taylor had originally denied that he had ever done anything wrong. It was not until later that he admitted to his crimes of sexual contact with the young girl, but also told police that she had made advances upon him.

Defense attorney Traci Lacock recommended that the sentence be no less than 25-30 years. Taylor went through what was stated as a "horrible" childhood. He ran away from his home at the age of 7 and became sexually abused by an older adult while n the care of a family friend. He also has cigarette burn scars that cover his arms as well as his stomach.

Lacock stated " I don't know of any human being that should put up with this type of abuse"

After Lacock said this Taylor claimed that he was also mentally, physically, and sexually abused beginning at the age of 4.

"When you come from a background like mine, it's hard to go through life," he said

Authorties in the sate of Texas have also accused Taylor of sending photographs of his genitals to an 8-year-old girl. They have also claimed that he has invited two young girls into his hotel bedroom so that he could fully expose himself o them.

Under the terms of the plea agreement, if Taylor is convicted of any crimes in Texas, he will serve time for them at the same time as his Wyoming prison term.

After speaking to other Casper residents such as Robert Madding and Kendy Madding, one can conclude from their statements of "This man is sick and wrong, many people grow up in a damaged way and actually work much harder to better themselves" as well as " One can be anything that they put their mind to, regardless of the past," that residents are satisfied with the fact that this man will be behind bars for a long time.
