Farney takes plea in sex offense case

KINGMAN – A local judge has broad discretion at an upcoming sentencing hearing for a Kingman man arrested early this year for a sex offense involving a minor. Police reports indicate 69-year-old Russel Farney performed a sex act on a nine-year-old boy in Feb. at his home in the 2900 block of Snavely Ave.
Farney pleaded guilty to a charge reduced to attempted sexual conduct with a minor. Terms of the agreement entered may allow the Court to impose as little as probation and as much as 15 years in prison.
Judge Doug Camacho is scheduled to impose sentence at a July 5 hearing.
