During Bradley Rinker’s trial in October on charges of indecent assault involving a minor and related offenses, his 34-year-old wife, Miranda Nicole Rinker, and a second woman, Felicia Nicole Auman, 33, both gave false testimony as defense witnesses, it was alleged in court documents recently filed by county Detective Loretta Barger.

At the conclusion of the trial, Judge Eric Linhardt found Rinker, 37, of 79 Loundenslager Road, guilty of indecent assault by forcible compulsion and indecent assault involving a minor under the age of 13. Three felony charges, two counts of aggravated assault and one count of corrupting the morals of a minor, were withdrawn during the trial. The charges were initially filed — and Rinker was arrested — in late February 2024.

Rinker, who remains jailed in lieu bail, is scheduled to be sentenced next month.

Miranda Rinker, who has the same address as her husband near the Loyalsock-Eldred township line, and Auman, of 111 Louderslager Road, were arrested Tuesday and arraigned before District Judge Aaron Biichle on charges of felony perjury, false swearing and obstructing the administration of law.

Barger alleges the two “provided false testimony under oath by claiming” that they had no knowledge of any statements the female victim in the case made to them before charges were filed against Rinker.

The two were released on $15,000 bail each.

In another case, this one involving two other minors not at all connected with the 2024 charges, Rinker pleaded no contest in August 2023 to two counts of indecent assault. He was sentenced to three to 12 months in jail and will be under supervision for at least four years.
