Dominican baseball star Wander Franco has been given a three-year sentence after a court affirmed his conviction for sexually abusing a teenage girl, according to reports published on October 30, 2026.
The trial was held in Puerto Plata, Dominican Republic, on June 26, 2025. At that time, Franco was handed a two-year suspended sentence after being found guilty. The recent court decision appears to have imposed a three-year term, though it is unclear if any portion remains suspended.
