A North Manchester man plead guilty to felony child molesting on Monday, May 8.
Brandon P. Knutson, 19, was arrested in July 2016 on two counts of felony child molestation following a Wabash County Sheriff’s Department investigation.
In June, WCSD officers received a report of an alleged child molestation involving Knutson and a child younger than 14-years-old, according to the probable cause affidavit.
Knutson was preliminarily charged with two counts felony child molesting.
On May 8, Knutson entered a plea agreement in which he plead guilty to one of the counts.
The sentencing hearing will take place June 5 at 1 p.m.
