TRUSSVILLE The man who forcefully grabbed a 14-year-old girl in the parking lot of the Trussville Walmart in 2017, pleaded guilty to one of two charges and has been released from jail.
Brent Lee Higginbotham, 29, of Ragland, was originally charged with one count of first degree sexual abuse by force and second degree sexual abuse, due to the age of the victim.
Detectives said Higginbotham grabbed one of the victim’s breasts as he placed his other arm around her waist in what may have been an attempt to pick her up, but she got away and called for help.
