FLAGLER COUNTY, Fla. – A man who was extradited from North Carolina to Florida in a Flagler County sex-crimes case has been sentenced to a decade in prison, according to the sheriff.
Kermit Booth, 72, was extradited to Florida after being arrested in August by deputies in North Carolina.
Booth on Wednesday pleaded no contest to a charge of attempted sexual battery, records show. A judge sentenced him to 10 years in prison, to be followed by 20 years of sex-offender probation.
Booth will also be required to register as a sexual predator, according to the ruling.
A circuit court action form dated Wednesday note there is “no objection to defendant transferring to North Carolina.”
