Man Gets 10 Years in Manchester Rape Case

MANCHESTER, CT — A Meriden man was ordered to serve a decade in prison on Thursday for sexual assaulting a 9-year-old girl in a case that originated in Manchester, the Hartford Courant reported.

Matthew Wyman, 23, was initially charged by Manchester police last October with 13 counts of first-degree sexual assault and one count of risk of injury to a minor, according to court and police records.

He had been in custody since his Oct. 23, 2015 arrest on a $1 million bond, according to court records.

He agreed to plead guilty to three charges and serve half the sentence with conditions, according to the Courant story.

The case was being tried in Hartford. See the full sentencing details outlined by the Courant here.
