BURNET, Texas — A Texas Hill Country jury that convicted a man
of multiple counts of sexual assault of a child and possession of child
pornography has given him 23 life prison terms.
State District Court Judge Dan Mills then stacked the
sentences Thursday, meaning Robert Michael Areaga won't ever get out of
prison.
Prosecutors showed Arteaga started molesting his daughter at age 4 months. When she was 15, she told a school counselor.
The now 16-year-old testified at the Burnet County trial.
Assistant District Attorney Stacy Street tells us the girl's childhood
was stolen by the man who was supposed to protect her and the victim
would spend the rest of her life trying to overcome what had happened to
her.
