Jose Nelson Guerra-Sanchez was sentenced to 25 years with all but nine years suspended for the sexual abuse of a minor, authorities announced on Monday afternoon.
On Valentine's Day last year, a Frederick Police Department detective responded to a call for a delayed report of sexual abuse, and after a forensic interview at the Child Advocacy Center, it was determined that Guerra-Sanchez sexually abused his victim when they were 14 and he was 23 years old.
Guerra-Sanchez was convicted in April after a bench trial.
Following his prison term, the judge also ruled that Guerra-Sanchez serve five years of supervised probation, have no contact with the victim or other minor children, and must submit to a psychosexual evaluation and follow all recommendations.
Guerra-Sanchez will also have to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life and is subject to lifetime sex offender supervision.
