A Washington County man accused of child rape and other felonies has been sentenced to forty-two and a half to eighty-five-years in prison.  Thirty-year-old Logan Hunt of South Strabane Township was convicted on all nine charges against him back in November.  Hunt was charged with multiple felonies, including rape of a child, sexual assault, aggravated indecent assault of a child, aggravated assault, corruption of minors and endangering the welfare of children. He also faced misdemeanors for indecent assault and simple assault.  Police said that Hunt had been living at the Rodeway Inn since December 2020, and often babysat the child.  They said that in June, the child’s father noticed bruising on her face and chin and took her to Children’s Hospital in Pittsburgh.  According to the complaint, hospital staff found that the child had a broken arm, and determined the injuries were consistent with abuse.  According to court documents, the child said Hunt would hit her in the face and that the suspect had raped her on more than one occasion.  As a result of his conviction, Hunt will be required to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life.
