A former probation officer gets seven and a half years in prison after he was found guilty of having sexual contact with women he was overseeing in Lima Municipal Court. In June, an Allen County jury found Dexter Thompson guilty of four counts of sexual battery and one count of unlawful sexual contact. There were three victims that came forward, but the jury only convicted Thompson of charges involving two of them. The prosecutor talked about how his actions not only did mental harm to the victims but hurt the reputation of the Lima Municipal Probation Office, which is trying to help people convicted of crimes turn their lives around.
