Greg Austin, former president of Chattanooga-based CTC technology companyA former Chattanooga tech company president won’t face jail time in his second case where he is convicted of paying to have sex with a teenage girl.
Greg Austin was sentenced to five years probation for charges that he paid a girl to bring a 17-year-old girl to a Fort Oglethorpe motel in October 2010 where he had sex with her in front of a 13-year-old girl.
The latest sentence on Friday came six months after Hamilton County Judge Don Poole sentenced Austin to six months in jail after he pleaded guilty to two charges of aggravated statutory rape. Authorities said the charges were for Austin paying two East Ridge Middle School girls to have sex with him at a local hotel.
Austin is now out of jail and he won’t have to move out of state to report to probation in Georgia because the 46-year-old man from Ooltewah has been allowed to report in Hamilton County.
Austin’s attorney, Bryan Hoss, said the former CTC Technologies president has been in sex offender treatment on a weekly basis and he isn’t allowed to be around children, except his own three daughters.
