TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) — One of four people accused of torturing a Tucson man for hours has been sentenced to two years of probation.
Larry Bruce Hammond pleaded guilty to aggravated assault and agreed to testify against former beauty queen Kumari Fulbright, whom he said he helped hold a former boyfriend captive for eight to 10 hours in December 2007.
Court documents say that Hammond, Fulbright and two other men pointed pistols at the man, threatened his life, and stole his wallet, cell phone, briefcase, and $500 to $600.
The documents also say Fulbright bit her ex-boyfriend several times while he was tied up and that she stuck a butcher knife in his ear. He escaped after a struggle.
Fulbright pleaded guilty to aggravated assault and conspiracy to commit kidnapping.
