Laney Gets Seven Plus Years

A Montpelier man is sentenced to more than seven years in prison for the physical assault of a toddler. Alan Laney was in a Williams County courtroom. Laney was sentenced to three years in prison for felonious assault and 18 months for each of three counts of endangering children. The charges stem from the abuse of a then 17-month-old child in June 2017. Laney informed the court of his intent to appeal, not only the sentencing but the outcome of the trial held in May.
