A 44-year-old Jackson man will spend the next 21 years in prison for sexually assaulting a minor. Jeffrey Alan Wooldridge of Jackson was sentenced Thursday to three seven-year terms, which will run consecutively. Wooldridge was convicted of Class C felonies of statutory sodomy. He was arrested Nov. 20 after being accused of molesting a 16-year-old relative. Assistant prosecuting attorney Julie Hunter said that 13 charges were originally filed against him; nine were bound over. In a plea agreement, Hunter said she went ahead with three sodomy charges and dropped the remaining six. Wooldridge has been in the Cape Girardeau County jail since his arrest.
