OGALLALA, Neb. (AP) – A western Nebraska man sentenced to up to 60 years in prison for kidnapping and sexually assaulting an Ogallala teenager is appealing his sentence. 21-year-old Jade Cleveland, of Keystone, argues in an appeal filed last week that his sentence was excessive. Cleveland was sentenced last month after pleading guilty to the charges. Prosecutors say he abducted a 17-year-old girl from her home at knifepoint and raped her in rural Keith County in October 2010. Cleveland’s attorney, Robert Lindemeier, says there is no question his client is guilty. But he says Cleveland sought out a plea to spare the victim a trial and to show remorse.
