ANGOLA, Ind. - An HIV-positive man was sentenced to eight years in prison after the parents of two young boys he molested told a judge their children face years of medical tests.
Bobby E. Lehner Jr., of Orland was sentenced Friday after pleading guilty to child molesting and vicarious sexual gratification in January.
The parents of the victims, described in court documents as two boys ages 6 and 9, became emotional as they told Steuben County Magistrate Randy Coffey that because Lehner, 34, is HIV-positive, their children face HIV testing for the next six years.
"That's not fair," one mother said, her voice shaking.
Another woman who said her child had been affected by the crimes said incarceration would be the only appropriate punishment.
According to court documents, Lehner was staying with a friend, the father of the two boys, when the acts occurred. After the father left the house, Lehner instructed the children to undress in front of him on one occasion, court documents said.
Lehner initially denied touching the children in interviews with police.
He told police he was a homosexual and had been viewing profiles of men online that contained nudity when the boys walked into the room.
He later told police he had been molested as a child and never told anyone, and had performed sex acts on the boys as a "learning" and "educational" experience for the children, court documents said.

What a sick SOB...
Eight years is not enough!
Can't you get a death sentence for doing this in some states?
I don't think so.
What a sick SOB...

Just another perverted queer doing the jobs normal Americans don't want to do ....
Apparently in his delusion between what is ordered versus disordered he got a little confused? Let us hope the APA does not decide to proclaim any other objective disorders to be normal as their leftist social experiments do have consequences...
(HIV-positive man sentenced to 8 years for molesting two boys)
8 years is friggin' disgusting.
EIGHT YEARS!! THAT'S ALL HE GOT!!!!!!!!!!!!
How about putting him in a cell and welding the door shut forever like he deserves!! (well, hanging him with piano wire is what he deserves but that's the next best thing).
---He later told police he had been molested as a child and never told anyone, and had performed sex acts on the boys as a "learning" and "educational" experience for the children, court documents said.---
Hanging would clarify his thinking on this.
May he die a slow, painful death....
According to court documents, Lehner was staying with a friend, the father of the two boys....

I wonder if the father is a homo too.
It seems to me there was room for a multitude of charges here.
Reckless endangerment, Child endangerment, Felonious assault
Obviously there was a plea bargain, but did the DA get a buy in from the parents before offering the deal?
Unless he does the right thing and takes his own life before he does harm to another child.
It's certainly a death sentence for those two boys...
Google this judge and you will soon find that he is an absolute nutcase. I think I shall call him tomorrow on his phone 260-688-1000 x2300 and offer him advice: QUIT!
Better if O'Reilly calls him!
2 days credit for every 1 day served with good behavior
Completion of substance abuse 3 phase program ( you need not be a substance abuser ) 1 year credit time
Were now down to 3 years executed time. There's also a community transition program that means either 90 days if its a C felony or 120 days if its a B felony credited as executed time, served as probation time.
Total probable time behind bars approximately 2.75 years.
"He later told police he had been molested as a child "
Don't most homosexuals have this history? That's why the catholic church wants to ask men if they were molested as a child before allowing them in the priesthood.
Now now, if only we support same-sex marriage and homo adoption then this guy wouldn't have caught HIV and would also then be able to practice his 'debauchery' in the guise of teaching and education on his own little boys. Is not the creed "SEX BEFORE 8 BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE".
It sounds like attempted murder to me...and in time it may, sadly, turn into actual murder.
Oklahoma recently became the fifth state to allow the death penalty for certain sex crimes, if they are convicted twice (which I assume means convicted on two counts)of rape, sodomy or lewd molestation involving children under 14 can face the death penalty.
Where's your compassion? /sar
I would be perfectly fine with the death penalty in cases like this.
"He later told police he had been molested as a child and never told anyone, and had performed sex acts on the boys as a "learning" and "educational" experience for the children, court documents said."
This freak should be turned over to the NRA as a target for target practice for budding gun enthusiasts. For the educational aspect of course
Wrong...South Carolina and Oklahoma have made molesting children a capital offense. I hope many more states will be following them. These evil SOBs should be put down in the same way we do mad dogs.
Hey he's only 34 so if he gets out at 37 he'll have time to work his 'educational etiquette' on other victims so IF these young boys luckily escape without contracting the HIV virus there are many others out there that he could 'prey' on and maybe eventually give it to them before he dies all thanks to this buffoon Magistrate Coffey.
Prayers that the young biys do NOT have HIV.
Yet another example of the effects of diversity, tolerance, the big tent, room at the table, dialogue, debate, discussion, different points of view, human dignity, equality. This illustrates one of the reasons why society and the law at one time suppressed these people. I guess people will have to relive history. In the meantime great damage will be inflicted upon the innocent. People had better start considering the doctrine of self help. The present 'leadership' only encourages them in their quest for "Rights!" Now one can see what they mean by "Rights."
I'm pretty sure there will be some spinmeister on TV explaining how there is no connection between child molestation and homosexuality and how homosexuality is a 'choice' and just overwhelmingly coincidental to childhood sexual abuse and not actually related to it. Blah, Blah, Blah.
yet GLSEN puts the GSA clubs in the schools just for this exact "educational experience".
THAT is really sick.
The big SECRET is that YES most homosexuals have been abused as children. It is a learned behavior. The priests who were accused of molesting boys said that they were molested as children.
Homosexuality is learned and that is why the homosexuals want to control the curriculum in school. The younger the child, the easier they are to brainwash.
I am not condoning what he did - he should die in jail, but acts, not thoughts or 'gratification' should be the crime. This (second part) is a thought crime charge.
Castrate him and then give him 8 years. Castration would stop a lot of these sick SOB's.
Vlad..now THAT was one sick SOB! Put even Nero to shame.
We could use Vlad on the bench now and then...
Was the dad that left the boys with the pervert really that clueless? I wonder if the parents are divorced. I wonder why the dad was living with a gay guy. Considering how often an estranged parent kills the kids to get back at the ex-spouse, I wonder if this was just a variation on that theme.
Clueless -maybe? Then again he may just be a liberal who bought into the leftist propaganda and now has a good reason to rethink the error of his ways...
If he's a true liberal, even this will be the fault of the religious right. We caused the poor sodomite to be repressed or something.
No the father is not a homo. He had been friends with this man for 15 yrs and his kids as well as mine were the victims.
No the father and Mr Lehner were not living together they had been friends for 15 yrs and occasionally Bobby would come stay the night with us ( he didnt have a vehichle) and we would take him home the next day. We had no clue he would ever do this or that he was HIV positive
Oh, my heavens. Prayers for your children and you and for the other family.
As I said in another post, I hope the perp dies a slow and painful death. In my mind there is nothing lower than harming a helpless individual such as a child or an old person.
