Miguel Cotto was sentenced to 25 years to life for predatory sexual assault against a child according to the District Attorney's office Thursday.
Cotto, 47, was charged with sexual assault for the ongoing abuse against a child under the age of 13.
According to officials, the abuse occurred on or about and between November 2018 and January 2020.
“Today’s life sentence is appropriate given that Miguel Cotto is a proven predator and sexual offender,” said Monroe County District Attorney Sandra Doorley. “The Monroe County District Attorney’s Office takes the abuse of children extremely seriously and we will work tirelessly to hold the offender accountable. If you know or suspect a child may be in danger, I urge you to call law enforcement or Bivona Child Advocacy Center.”
