A former Nebraska police officer has been given 30-to-60 years in prison for having sex with an underage girl.

Larry Williams was sentenced Friday in Buffalo County District Court for first-degree sexual assault of a child and five counts of first-degree sexual assault.

Prosecutors say Williams was sexually involved with the girl between 2001 and 2003, beginning when she was 14 and Williams was a Ravenna police officer. He resigned from the department in 2005.

Williams also was tried in 2007 and earlier this year, but both trials ended in hung juries.

According to the Kearney Hub, Williams' attorney says Williams is asking for a new trial, alleging among other reasons that the jury's verdict wasn't supported by the evidence.
