Man sexually assaults girlfriend's 2-yr-old daughter, claims child's horrific injuries were result of a dog attack
A man from San Antonio, Texas, was found guilty on November 8 for sexually assaulting a toddler whose mother said that the child's horrific injuries were a result of a dog attack. 25-year-old Isaac Andrew Cardenas was convicted on charges of super aggravated sexual assault of a child. He and his girlfriend, Crystal Herrera, who is also the mother of the toddler, were indicted in March last year. 24-year-old Herrera is currently out on bail and is awaiting her trial. If convicted, she faces the maximum life sentence in jail with a $10,000 fine.
The San Antonio Express reported that the jurors started deliberations at 10:25 am and reached a verdict a little after 4 pm. Cardenas is set to be sentenced at a later date by Visiting Judge Philip Kazen, who is the one who presided over the trial which began on November 5. If convicted, Cardenas will face a minimum of 25 years in prison with a fine of $10,000.
