Corbin man sentenced in Laurel Circuit Court
Feb. 22—LONDON — After over five years since the alleged crime and four years since his indictment, 37-year-old Danny Ray Collinger of Robert E. Cox Road in Corbin, was sentenced by Laurel Circuit Judge Michael O. Caperton last week to serve 11 years in prison for first-degree rape and first-degree sodomy. The victims were 11 and 12 years old when the offenses took place.
The plea agreement with Collinger offered an 11-year sentence for each count, but will run concurrently — or at the same time. He was also sentenced to serve 12 months in jail for third-degree unlawful transaction with a minor, for giving alcohol to a person under age 18.
Collinger was named in a 13-count indictment in Feb. 2020 that included unlawful transaction with minor and wanton endangerment and all victims were under age 18.
