Fremont man sentenced for domestic assault

A Fremont man accused of fighting with his girlfriend and refusing police orders was sentenced to prison Tuesday in Dodge County Court.

Julio Rivera, 24, of Fremont previously was convicted of domestic assault and obstructing a peace officer, both Class I misdemeanors, and violating a protection order, a Class II misdemeanor.

“From his criminal history, the defendant is no stranger to violating the law,” said Deputy Dodge County Attorney Mark Boyer. “This defendant is not an appropriate candidate for probation because of his previous assaults.”

Boyer asked for a two-year sentence.

Rivera was sentenced to 18 months in prison.
