An Odessa man will be spending a long time behind bars after pleading guilty to sexual assault.
An Ector County jury handed Miguel Minjarez a 30 year sentence after he pleaded guilty to two counts of sexual assault of a child and one count of aggravated sexual assault of a child.
Charges were filed against Minjarez, 43, back in 2009, after the victim told a counselor what had been going on. Authorities say the abuse started back in 2002, when the victim was 8 years-old.
