He was given an additional 15 years on top of the life sentences.
PANAMA CITY, Fla. - A man found guilty of sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl multiple times and videoing the attacks was ordered to spend the rest of his life in prison.
The defendant waived his right to a jury trial on 7 counts of Sexual Battery on a Child Under the Age of 12, 2 counts of Lewd and Lascivious Molestation, and 1 count of Lewd or Lascivious Exhibition.Lead Prosecutor Jennifer Lieb asked Judge Clark for the maximum sentence, going on to say “He has refused to accept responsibility and has adamantly blamed everyone else, including the victim,” and “He very carefully groomed this child to behave the way he wanted her to.
The victim’s mother told a co-worker she had found videotapes of the sexual abuse. That co-worker then notified the Bay County Sheriff’s Office. The memory card on the camera and the tablet both contained videos of the crimes with which the defendant was convicted.
