The 60-day jail sentence is distinct from the suspended five-year prison term. October 10 arrest follows Radio Iowa’s October 14 report identifying the preceding Monday. Initial jail custody is documented, but the precise admission day is not separately established. No continuous custody interval or exact actual time served is inferred.
