PHOENIX – A Mesa man was sentenced to 20 years in prison after pleading guilty to having sexual conduct with a minor, authorities said Friday.
In 2021, the victim told authorities that Rex Shotell Cravat, 46, had been molesting her for years, the Maricopa County Attorney’s Office said in a press release.
Cravat pleaded guilty on three charges in May of this year and was sentenced on June 24.
Judge Roy Whitehead also ordered lifetime probation for Cravat after he’s released from prison.
