NORWICH – In an effort to decrease the amount of information the prosecution can use against him, a man charged with rape went before the court Monday.
James C. Pruitt, represented by county Public Defender Alan Gordon, motioned the court to disregard his statement to state police. Pruitt, who has been charged with rape in third degree, allegedly had sexual intercourse with a 13-year-old girl in July of 2007.
Monday, State Police investigator Jason M. Bessett was asked to take the stand for questioning during the roughly 45 minute hearings. Bessett said within a couple days following the incident he was contacted by Binghamton state police about an incident occurring in Coventry off of Route 235 in the county of Chenango.
