Savannah, GA- A former U.S. Army soldier from Iowa, previously stationed at Fort Stewart has been sentenced to prison after admitting he committed sex crimes against a minor. According to Court Documents, 46-year-old Jason Adkins of Swann, Iowa, was sentenced Friday, January 28th to 76 months in prison after pleading guilty to Abusive Sexual Contact with a Child Under 12 Years of Age, in US District Court in Georgia. Adkins had been stationed in Fort Stewart prior to retiring from the Army in 2015, after which he relocated to Altoona, Iowa.
