Edmonson Voice Staff Report:
A jury deliberated for only two hours yesterday in Edmonson Circuit Court before finding the defendant, Thomas Jaggers, (55) of Brownsville, guilty of attempted rape from an April, 2016 case, as well as other charges.


Jaggers was arrested on April 13, 2016 at the home of an Edmonson County woman where he was accused of a home invasion and sexual assault. Detective Wally Ritter of the Edmonson County Sheriff's Office testified that he broke up the sexual assault that was taking place when he arrived.

The jury also recommended a total sentence of 10 years in jail and a $250 fine. 

Jaggers has been out on bond since his arrest last year but that bond was revoked and he was taken into custody last night. Final sentencing is currently scheduled for January 17, 2018 and he will remain incarcerated until sentencing.
