Brian Taylor-Rose - Repeat Sex Offender - Gets only 3 1/2 years

A Port Angeles man will serve three and a half years in prison for child molestation.

31-year-old Brian Taylor-Rose was sentenced in Clallam County Superior Court after plead guilty in the case last month.

Taylor-Rose was arrested in May after Port Angeles police investigated a report that a young boy was molested in a residence on the west side of Port Angeles. He was originally charged with first degree child molestation, but plead guilty to third degree child molestation.

Authorities say Taylor-Rose has a previous conviction for a similar incident that also occurred on the west side of Port Angeles.
