snip--"A little more than a year after a 10-year-old Columbus girl made national news because she had to travel from Ohio to Indiana for an abortion, the man who was charged with raping her admitted to his crime.
Gerson Fuentes, 28, a Guatemalan national who has a Columbus address, appeared for a hearing Wednesday afternoon in Franklin County Common Pleas Court. At the beginning of the hearing, Assistant Franklin County Prosecutor Dan Meyer said Fuentes would be agreeing to a guilty plea in the case, forgoing a trial.
The plea will be in exchange for a jointly recommended prison sentence of life in prison with the possibility of parole after a minimum of 25 to 30 years, Meyer said, however, Judge Julie Lynch is not required to abide by the recommendation.
Prosecutors said DNA evidence indicates Fuentes, whom authorities have identified as the boyfriend of the girl's mother, impregnated her."
