Pierre Pierce Protests Presentencing Presentation of Priors: Attorneys for former Iowa guard Pierre Pierce, accused of burglary, assault, attempted sexual assault, and criminal mischief, have asked District Court Judge Gregory Hulse to throw out a pre-sentencing report drawn up by the state. The report lists Pierre Pierce’s priors (assault causing injury in 2002; violation of restraining order in 2004), something that his attorneys argue shouldn’t be used in sentencing guidelines, per the deal worked out with prosecutors in August. Pierce pled guilty to reduced charges, and he is hopeful that he can avoid prison time. Prosecutors agreed to suspend the 5-year prison term for the burglary charge, but Pierce may still face four years on the other charges. Judge Hulse will sentence Pierce on Friday. [10/25/05]
