Michigan GOP activist gets 5 years for sexual battery
Associated Press
CLEVELAND - A lawyer who formerly led a Michigan young Republicans organization was sentenced Thursday to five years in prison on a guilty plea to sexual battery stemming from allegations that he forced sex acts on a woman while both were at a convention last year.
Cuyahoga County Common Pleas Judge Peter J. Corrigan sentenced Michael A. Flory, 33, of Jackson, Mich. Flory, dressed in a jacket, white tie and dark blue button-down shirt, was led from the courtroom in handcuffs.
Other charges, including rape, kidnapping, aggravated burglary and gross sexual imposition, were dismissed when he pleaded guilty July 24.
Flory is the former chairman of the Michigan Federation of Young Republicans.
He was attending a Cleveland convention of young Republicans, ages 18 to 40, at the time of the crime in July 2006. The victim, 21 at the time, was intoxicated and became ill, and Flory took her back to her hotel and attacked her in her hotel room, said assistant county prosecutor Carol Skutnik.
