A former Fayette County man will serve up to 10 years in prison for sexually assaulting a girl 20 years ago.
Lawrence Wesley Henry Jr., 50, formerly of Normalville and East Huntingdon, will serve his prison sentence in Virginia, where he first confessed to his crime in Westmoreland County following a 2018 arrest on charges he attempted to have sex with teen girl near Roanoke.
Henry, according to court records, was arrested when he drove to Virginia to have sex with a juvenile he met online. In reality, investigators said Henry communicated with a police officer posing as a child as part of a sting operation. While in custody in Virginia, Henry confessed to having sexually assaulted a juvenile in Pennsylvania in the early 2000s.
