LAFAYETTE, Ind. (AP) - A judge has sentenced a Lafayette man to 64 years in prison for 10 convictions of child molesting against three victims dating back to 2009.
Tippecanoe Circuit Judge Thomas Busch sentenced 52-year-old James Ly Tran on Monday. A jury convicted Tran of the 10 counts in March after a three-day trial.
The Lafayette Journal & Courier reports (https://on.jconline.com/2qp83uT ) the allegation against Tran came to light when one of the victims told police last June that he had molested her. That led to discovery of the other two victims.
