PORT ANGELES — Nicholas Tanner Lippert has been sentenced to seven years, nine months in prison after pleading guilty to first-degree rape of a child, the Clallam County Prosecuting Attorney’s Office announced.

Lippert, 19, of Port Angeles pleaded guilty in October to the amended charge for having sex with an 8-year-old boy last July. He was sentenced last Thursday.

He was originally charged with three counts of first-degree rape of a child and one county of child molestation.

All but 12 months of the 93-month sentence were suspended on the condition that Lippert complete a special sex offender sentencing alternative.

Clallam County Superior Court Judge Erik Rohrer ordered the sex offender treatment program due to Lippert’s age and lack of criminal history, Chief Criminal Deputy Michele Devlin said.

Lippert must register as a sex offender for life, Devlin said.
