Clarence Hinkley

MONTICELLO – A Livingston Manor man was sentenced in Sullivan County Court on Wednesday to two to four years in state prison as a second felony offender relating to an incident of domestic violence against his intimate partner on September 8, 2024. Clarence Hinkley, 42, shad two prior felony convictions.

In this case, he was convicted of attempted assault against his girlfriend for attacking her following a verbal assault when he threw her to the floor with force and then kicked her in the face with his shoe. She suffered a fracture of her right orbital bone.

“Domestic violence is a serious crime that often occurs behind closed doors, but its impact is profound and lasting,” said District Attorney Brian Conaty.
