TUCSON, Ariz. (AP) - A Honduran man has been sentenced to more than seven years in federal prison for assaulting a female corrections officer in Tucson in 2016.
Prosecutors say 43-year-old Wilmer Martin Flores was given an 87-month prison term.
A jury previously found Flores guilty of assault on a federal officer.
Prosecutors say Flores was charged with assaulting a U.S. Bureau of Prisons corrections officer in June 2016.
They say the woman suffered serious injuries.
At the time of the assault, Flores was serving a nearly 20-year sentence for sex trafficking and kidnapping.
