Man gets year in jail in attempted molestation case

A Colorado City, Ariz., man who fondled his young niece was sentenced Friday to a year in jail.

Mohave County Superior Court Judge Derek Carlisle also sentenced 23-year-old Garth Warner to probation and required him to register as a sex offender for life.

Under a plea agreement, Warner was convicted of two counts of attempted child molestation.

Prosecutor Doug Camacho said Warner fondled the 7-year-old victim on separate occasions while living at her parent's home in Colorado City last October.
