MI - A Brighton man learned Thursday that he will spend six months on electronic tether for eavesdropping on his wife. Livingston County Circuit Judge David Reader also sentenced the 45-year-old man to 18 months probation and six days in the county jail, with credit for six days served.
Police alleged the 45-year-old man sexually assaulted his wife in summer 2004 while she slept at their home, and that he installed eavesdropping devices and videotaped the assault.
The assault was not reported until 2006, police said.
The two are getting a divorce.
The man pleaded guilty to eavesdropping and installing devices to eavesdrop in exchange for prosecutors dismissing three counts of third-degree criminal sexual conduct. (more)
