NEWPORT - A former Newport News police officer pleaded guilty Thursday to six counts of indecent liberties with children under 14, getting a 45-year prison sentence -- with all 45 years suspended.
Randolph Drew Smith, now 60, admitted to three
counts of fondling a teenage boy in 1982 and three counts of doing the
same with a different teenage boy between 1994 and 1995. All counts
occurred while he was a police officer.
According to a detailed summary provided at the Newport News Circuit Court hearing Wednesday, five
of the incidents involved, in part, Smith bringing the boys to climax
while they were lying with him in his bed -- and once suggesting that
one of the boys do the same to him.
The Newport News Commonwealth's Attorney's Office, in a plea agreement, agreed that Smith would get no time in prison in return for pleading guilty to the crime.
The plea agreement, accepted wholly by Circuit Court Judge Timothy S. Fisher, also requires Smith to get supervised probation for two years,
maintain good behavior for 15 years, have no direct contact with either
victim or "any juvenile males" aside from relatives who are supervised
by another adult.
He must also submit a sample of his DNA to the state, get treatment in a sex offender program and register with the state's sex offender list.
