Rock Springs man receives prison sentence

ROCK SPRINGS – A Rock Springs man was sentenced today to five-to-eight years in prison for Immoral or Indecent Acts with a Child.

Sweetwater County Sheriff Rich Haskell said Harold Lee Myers, 48, was arrested in November of 2011 by Detective Michelle Hall, the case’s lead investigator. Myers later pleaded guilty in District Court in Green River. Haskell declined to describe the case’s details, citing privacy concerns for the underage victim.

District Court Judge Richard Lavery handed down Tuesday’s sentence. Myers, who is free on bond, was given 10 days to turn himself in to begin serving his sentence.
