CASPER, WYOMING - A judge has sentenced a former night manager at a Casper boys home to seven to 10 years in prison for providing marijuana to teenagers.

Roger Dean Peters had pleaded guilty in March to delivery and possession of marijuana. He was sentenced Wednesday in district court.

Police say five boys between the ages of 14 and 16 told investigators that Peters gave them marijuana while he worked at the R.L. Mills Home for boys. The home serves boys ages 12 to 17 who are ordered there for a variety of reasons, including anti-social and criminal behavior.
