(KAIR)--A 33-year-old Leavenworth man, who multiple times intimidated his victim by calling her from the Leavenworth County Jail, has been sentenced to prison.

According to a press release from the office of Leavenworth County Attorney Todd Thompson, Bobby James Brown Jr. was sentenced last week to 12 months of incarceration after he pled guilty to one count each of domestic battery and intimidation of a witness.

Brown was arrested May 14, and later charged with domestic battery and intimidation of a witness or victim. Brown was arrested following a domestic disturbance inside a home in downtown Leavenworth. Court documents state Brown became angry with a woman inside the house and attacked her when she attempted to call the police. The victim suffered a laceration to her arm and red marks on her neck after Brown grabbed her while trying to wrestle a phone from her.

Brown placed multiple phone calls from the Leavenworth County Jail to his victim between June 2, 2023, and June 12, 2023. According to court documents, during those phone calls, Brown instructed the victim of his attack to avoid subpoena service to appear in court. Brown would also tell his victim several times not to come to court so he could “beat” the charges. After the victim told him she received notification of a hearing, he told her that she could come to court and say that she lied about what happened.

Brown was sentenced to six months in prison on the charge of domestic battery and six months for intimidating a witness. Both sentences will run consecutively for a total of 12 months. Brown received credit for time already served.
