Atchison man sentenced to prison on child sex charge

(KAIR)--A sex crime committed against a child sends an Atchison man to prison for more than a decade.

Atchison County Attorney Sherri Becker, in a release, says Jayln Cluke was sentenced Thursday in Atchison County District Court to nearly 14-years in prison for the crime of aggravated criminal sodomy, involving a 13-year-old girl.

The child, the release says, reported she'd been sexually assaulted by Cluke in May, 2021.

Cluke, in June of this year, entered a no contest plea to the charge.

Along with his years of incarceration, Cluke, as part of his sentence, will be subject to lifetime post release supervision and will be placed on the sex offender registry for life.

The case was investigated by Atchison Police leading to Cluke's apprehension, with the assistance of the U.S. Marshal Service, in October of last year at his Atchison residence on an Atchison Co District Court warrant.
