Church Leader Convicted in Teen Abuse Case | San Jose News

A San Francisco jury convicted 45-year-old Marvin Sotorizo on two counts of oral copulation of an unconscious person, stemming from assaults on two teenage boys under his church youth group care in 2017. Sotorizo, who groomed the boys by building trust and allowing them to stay in his room—including sharing a bed—was found guilty after one victim woke up during an assault and reported it, prompting the second to come forward. District Attorney Brooke Jenkins called the verdict justice after nearly a decade of pursuit, underscoring her office’s commitment to survivors. Sotorizo faces sentencing on September 24th and remains free pending that date. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
