3/15/14 - A Unadilla man accused of criminal sexual conduct with a minor will not be getting any additional jail time. The 41-year-old, who WHMI will not be identifying to protect the identity of the alleged victim, was facing two counts of 2nd degree CSC involving a victim under the age of 13. He has pleaded guilty to accosting a child for immoral purposes and attempted witness tampering as part of a plea deal with prosecutors. That plea carries with it a sentence of no more than one year in jail, and since he has already been held for longer than that he would receive no additional jail time when he is sentenced on April 3rd. Prosecutor Bill Vailliencourt says that plea agreement will spare the victim in this case from having to testify. Police say the defendant began molesting the girl when she was just six years old in 2004 and continued to do so until June 1st of 2007. The man was arrested in September following a five-month joint investigation between the Unadilla Township and Pinckney Village Police Departments, with assistance from the Livingston County Sheriff Department's Computer Crimes Unit.
