Webb man gets 12 years

A Webb man received a 12-year prison sentence earlier this week after he pleaded guilty to molesting two teenage girls.
Attorney Eric Davis said his client, Herman Dewayne Cannon, 21, of Furnie Folks Road, pleaded guilty to three felony counts of second-degree sodomy and two felony counts of second-degree rape. Davis said Circuit Court Judge Larry Anderson sentenced Cannon to 12 years in prison for each of the charges, which he ordered to be served concurrently with each other.
Court records indicate Houston County Sheriff’s deputies arrested him in September 2010. According to the warrants in the cases, both victims are from Ashford. One girl was 14 when the sexual assaults started. The other one was 15 years old when they started.
Cannon faced two to 20 years in prison for each of the class B felony crimes.
