Swade Tullis | Jefferson County Jail
RIGBY A Rigby man will spend a decade on probation for abusing a mentally disabled adult.
Swade James Tullis, 21, received the sentence Monday after previously pleading guilty to abuse, exploitation or neglect of a vulnerable adult. District Judge Stevan Thompson gave Tullis an underlying two to 10-year prison sentence that Tullis could be ordered to serve if he is not successful on probation.
The admission of guilt was part of a plea agreement with prosecutors. In exchange for the plea, prosecutors amended the abuse charge from felony sexual abuse of a vulnerable adult. Prosecutors also dismissed a felony charge of forcible penetration using a foreign object where the victim is unable to consent.

AMMON – Multiple vehicles were involved in a crash on 17th Street and Crowley Road in Ammon Friday night.
The crash occurred just before 10 p.m., according to Sgt. Bryan Lovell with Bonneville County Sheriff’s Office. It’s not clear how many vehicles were involved, but Lovell tells EastIdahoNews.com one of them hit a power pole.
Traffic was shut down for several hours while deputies conducted the investigation. A downed power line is a safety hazard and Lovell says it took some time for the power company to clean it up.
