HUTCHINSON — A Kansas woman who entered a plea to a charge of indecent liberties with a child was given probation on Friday in lieu of what could have been a lengthy prison sentence.

Samantha Otterbein, Hutchinson, was found guilty of inappropriate touching of a 15-year-old girl in July of 2014.

Judge Joe McCarvill told Otterbein that she could see significant prison time if she violates her 32 months of probation.

Otterbein who pleaded guilty to the charge in March was in a consensual relationship with the girl who was 15. Otterbein was 20 at the time.
