Escambia Man Gets 30 Years In Sexual Battery Case

August 10, 2011

An Escambia County man has been sentenced to 30 years in prison in a sexual battery case that left a 16-year old girl pregnant.

Paul Cornelius Boatman, Sr., was convicted of sexual battery while in the position of familial or custodial authority by an Escambia County Jury. Following the verdict, Judge Jan Shackelford sentenced the 54-year old Boatman to 30 years state prison and designated him as a sexual predator.

Between March and April 2010, Boatman committed sexual battery upon the victim on multiple occasions in their home. At the time of the incident, the victim was 16 and became pregnant as a result.

    So the two guys in another story get life sentences for drugs but this RAPIST gets 30 years…too bad he didn’t have cocaine in his pocket…maybe he would have gotten life!

    I hope he lives to regret what he has done to a 16 year old child who will have
    a reminder with her for the rest of her life. May God Bless this child and
    her child. I hope there is no early release for this predator.

    This is beyond disgusting! The sad fact is, if this victim was not pregnant – there will be no REAL proof of the sexual abuse and he would more than likely walk free. It would be her word against his. Trust me, I know from experience.
    I feel so sorry for the victim…whatever choice she makes-she will always be reminded of what this evil man did to her. I pray for her and the baby.
    I hope Mr Boatman rots in prison and hopefully “Bubba” will take care of him in the shower stall.

    I hope someone woke him up for the verdict.
