An El Paso County judge on Thursday sentenced a man to between eight years and life in prison for two 2015 sex assault cases, one of which involved a child victim.
Court records show Jonathan Evangelista Marmolejo, 70, on Thursday pleaded guilty to child sex assault by one in a position of trust and sex assault by overcoming a victim’s will.
The pleas came in two separate cases.
The Gazette reports on of Marmolejo’s victim was a teen girl and the other a 20-year-old developmentally delayed woman. The woman told police she was so terrified she could not sleep alone after a series of assault by Marmolejo began, according to the newspaper.
Marmolejo was arrested in the case in June 2015.
