2 men get 10 years for Florida spring break sexual assault
PANAMA CITY, Fla. (AP) - Two former students at an Alabama university have been sentenced to 10 years in prison for sexually assaulting a woman during a spring break attack in Panama City Beach.
The News Herald reports that 23-year-old Ryan Austin Calhoun and 23-year-old Delonte Martistee were sentenced Friday. They were convicted last month of sexual battery by multiple perpetrators. Besides prison time, both men have been designated as sex offenders.
