The Minnesota Court of Appeals has ordered that a Waseca child molester be sent to prison. A Waseca County District judge sentenced Timothy John Wright, 40, to probation in December after he pleaded guilty to charges of sexually abusing a 16-year-old boy and 13-year-old girl for multiple years. But a Court of Appeals panel issued a decision Monday that Wright should have been sentenced to nearly nine years in prison as prescribed in sentencing guidelines. Wright was taken into custody, and Judge Carol Hanks ordered the new sentence on Tuesday.
