A report prepared for the court by Intermountain SexAbuseTreatmentrepresented that Butler did not accept responsi--, bility for the crime. Payne said Butlers denials and failure to take responsibility added to his decision to forego the recommendation of the prosecution and order the prison term. The fact that Butler was the victims father made the crime even more aggravating, he said. The vie tims mother had written a letter to the judge in support of Butler, saying he was needed in the home to help support the family. According to police, the victims mother was told by her daughter of the abuse when it first began years ago, but believed it could be worked oilt without being reported to law enforcement. The abuse was revealed when the victim confided in a Sunday School teacher who reported it to the proper authorities. GAS PRICES Continued from page 1 and hope to make up for it at another store.
