Lincoln Man Sentenced for Failing to Register as a Sex Offender

United States Attorney Deborah R. Gilg announced that Michael P. Boyer, age 47 of Lincoln, Nebraska, was sentenced on March 27, 2013, in Lincoln, Nebraska, to 12 months and one day in prison by United States District Senior Judge Lyle E. Strom, for failing to register as a sex offender.  After his release from prison, Boyer will be required to serve a five year term of supervised release and be registered as a sex offender.

Boyer was required to register as a sex offender as a result of convictions for assault with intent to commit rape and assault with a deadly weapon in Placer County, California, in 1990.  He was discharged from custody for that offense in 1993, and did not register in any of the states in which he subsequently resided.

This case was investigated by the United States Marshals Service.
