“I get he’s old, I get he’s sick, but he’s going to prison and he’ll die there, and he should,' a local District Attorney said.
WETUMPKA, Ala. - A Deatsville man who used to teach Sunday school will spend the rest of his life in prison for his second child sex abuse conviction., 78, was found guilty Wednesday of sexually abusing a child less than 12 years old. Thursday morning, Circuit Judge Bill Lewis sentenced him to 99 years in state prison.
“I do hate that he has a terminal illness. I don’t wish that on anyone. But you still got to answer for what you’ve done,” Robinson said. At the time, Prince was out of prison from a 1991 conviction on what was at the time called carnal knowledge of a child under 12. He had served 15 years of a 30-year sentence.
The 1991 trial sparked national attention and brought out others who said Prince abused them, although Allison Black Cornelius was the only one who sought charges until this year.
