RAPID CITY, S.D. (AP) - A Box Elder man who worked at a preschool and in youth sports has been sentenced to 40 years in prison for sexually assaulting two boys.
Twenty-eight-year-old Trevor Lone Hill was sentenced Wednesday in Seventh Judicial Circuit Court. Judge Craig Pfeifle said Lone Hill caught the boys in his “evil web” by purposely seeking them out and grooming them.
The Rapid City Journal reports Lone Hill’s attorney Travis Jones argued for leniency because his client admitted to his crimes and regrets them.
