Kingston man sentenced for rape in Kitsap County; victim says it was 'sorry excuse for a plea deal'

Stephen Tyler Clayton was sentenced to 14 months in prison after accepting a plea deal on Monday.

While Clayton pled guilty to raping three women, his plea combined three rape charges into one charge of rape and one charge of assault.

Clayton was sentenced to 14 months in prison, 36 months under community custody, and will have to register as a sex offender.

“This case has consumed our lives, and what do we have to show for it other than a sorry excuse for a plea deal?” Alissa Drowns, one of Clayton’s victims, said in court on Monday. “Nothing is ever going to be the same for our family.”
