Man sexually assaults and impregnates 11 Year Old child
31-year-old New York man Jeffry Rosales, has admitted he had sex with an
11-year- old girl and got her pregnant and pleaded guilty to
first-degree rape Wednesday as part of a plea deal. A judge sentenced
Rosales to 17 years in prison as part of a plea agreement. One Tuesday
Rosales faced up to two life sentences.
He was charged with predatory
sexual assault, which carries a maximum weight of 25 years to life in
prison and also faced another 25-to-life sentence for second-degree
murder in the June 2013 fatal shooting of Keenan Russell.
However,
prosecutors dropped the murder charge against Russell on Tuesday after
authorities arrested someone else who took responsibility for the crime.
Defense attorney Robert Macedonio says his client is satisfied with the
plea in the rape case.
Rosales, who also faces a four-year sentence for
a robbery charge, initially refused the plea deal on Tuesday but later
changed his mind as the evidence against him was overwhelming and
included DNA hence pleaded guilty just hours after jury selection began.
Authorities say he acknowledged fathering the child in several recorded
jail phone calls between him and his family members and even the girl
The relationship between him and the 11 year old was not immediately
known and her information has been kept from the public due to being a
minor.
