Effingham Man Gets Prison Term

An Effingham man has reported to begin a prison term for aggravated battery.

36-year-old Raymond S. White pleaded guilty earlier this month and was sentenced to three years in prison.  Effingham County State's Attorney Bryan Kibler Wednesday said White beat up two individuals following a concert outside a local venue.  Kibler said the two victims needed medical treatment.  White also agreed to make more than $4,000 restitution to the victims.

The incident occurred last June.
