A man was sentenced to at least 220 years in state prison for numerous sex crimes against two children. "I could sentence you to over 500 years," Jefferson County Judge John Foradora told Douglas D. Kesslar on Wednesday. "Out of all the child sex cases I've had ... this case has the worst, twisted, heinous and cruel set of facts I've ever seen."
Foradora sentenced Kesslar to 20 to 40 years on each of 11 counts of rape of a child.
A jury in October convicted Kesslar, 46, of Punxsutawney, of 89 sex crimes against the children, who were 8 and 10 at the time. The abuse took place in 2004 and 2005, authorities said.
Kesslar also threatened his victims with his own suicide and used witchcraft and black magic to intimidate them, the judge said.
