A Long Island man received a 24-year prison sentence for the sexual abuse and rape of his stepdaughter over four years. Following a jury's verdict, he was also given 20 years of post-supervision release. The abuse started when the victim was 10 years old and continued until she was 14. The victim reported the abuse years later, after feeling embarrassment and fear of not being believed. Proven evidence led to the defendant's conviction of first-degree course of sexual conduct against a child, classified as a Class B violent felony.
The man, 61, was sentenced to 24 years in prison followed by 20 years of post-supervision release, after a jury found him guilty of sexual conduct against a child.
