OSSIPEE — A Conway man was found not guilty of attempted murder but guilty of four other charges in Carroll County Superior Court on Friday. William Ramsey, 41, of Conway, was accused of choking and beating his then girlfriend with his hands and gagging her with a curling iron on Dec. 13, 2010. A jury found Ramsey guilty of felony second-degree assault, kidnapping, reckless conduct and misdemeanor criminal threatening. Ramsey now faces 11 1/2 to 21 years in prison. Sentencing will take place within 60 days. "I'm pleased," said county attorney Tom Dewhurst. On the stand, Ramsey admitted clutching his girlfriend by the throat and slapping her "hard" four or five times. But he denied shoving the curling iron down her throat and hitting her with it. The attack took place in his apartment. The victim was preparing to leave and had just finished changing from her pajamas to street clothes following an argument.
