A Hays County jury June 5 sentenced an Illinois man to 99 years in prison after it convicted him of aggravated sexual assault and indecency with a child.

Punishment for Reymundo Montiel, Jr., 41, of Pickneyville, IL, came after a nearly two week trial surrounding his abuse of two girls in 2014 and 2015. Montiel was charged with two counts of aggravated sexual assault of a child, both first-degree felony offenses, as well as two counts of indecency with a child by sexual contact, both second-degree felonies. Montiel was convicted on all four counts.

According to a press release, two victims testified Montiel began sexually assaulting them in 2014 while they were asleep. When confronted, Montiel confessed to the victims’ mother after he believed he had impregnated one of the girls.
