NORWICH – Chenango County Court Judge Frank B. Revoir, Jr. held a risk assessment hearing and an arraignment at Chenango County Court on Dec. 2. An attempted rapist was given a level of risk before being released next year and a man accused of three drug charges was arraigned.

• Zachary A. Miller, 24, Norwich, was convicted of attempted rape on Sept. 23, 2011. Miller was incarcerated in prison following his conviction.

Miller was 21 years old when he was originally charged with rape in the first degree, criminal sexual act in the first degree, sexual conduct against a child, possession of a sexual performance by a child and endangering the welfare of a child.

It was alleged that Miller had an ongoing sexual relationship with a female child. The Chenango County Sheriff’s office said that Miller was engaging in sexual intercourse with a child less than 13 years of age and that it occurred on several occasions over the course of several months.

Miller was also found to be in possession of pornographic images of the child victim at the time of his arrest.

The risk assessment and case summary recommended that Miller be a risk level two. Zachary Wentworth, Miller’s lawyer, said he and his client do not object to the assignment of a risk level two.
