Pittsboro, N.C. — A Pittsboro man was sentenced Monday to 10 years in prison for molesting a girl a decade ago, authorities said.
Murnice Chandler, 44, was convicted on 21 counts of indecent liberties with a child and was sentenced to 10 years in prison. He also was ordered to wear a Global Positioning System tracking device for the rest of his life.
The molestation occurred from 1996 to 1998, when the girl was age 8 to 10, authorities said. Chandler was a self-employed painter at the time.
Prosecutors said they were searching for others who might have information about Chandler's activities during that time.
