A 45-year-old Cleveland man has been sentenced to three life terms in prison for child molestation.
Enotah Judicial Circuit Court Judge Joy Parks sentenced Jason David Loucks to two life sentences to serve consecutively and one to serve concurrently, reports WRWH News.
Loucks has remained in jail since authorities arrested him in January 2018 for abusing a male and female child, both under the age of 15. Prosecutors say Loucks gave his victims meth in order to sexually assault them.
Judge Parks sentenced Loucks on all 13 counts of child molestation filed against him as well as distribution of methamphetamine.
Enotah Circuit District Attorney Jeff Langley represented the State in court.
“When it came across my desk it was so horrendous I determined immediately to try this one myself,” he says.
Fifteen witnesses testified over the course of the five-day trial.
