A 25-year-old man pleaded guilty and was immediately sentenced to a year in jail for kidnapping and molesting a 16-year-old girl at a Denny\u2019s restaurant where they both worked in Anaheim, according to court records obtained Wednesday.<\/p>\n
Hasmyr Helim Sanchez pleaded guilty to a felony count of kidnapping and a misdemeanor count of touching an intimate part of another person. As part of the plea deal, felony counts of rape, assault with the intent to commit a sex offense, sexual battery, assault of a minor with the intent to commit a sex offense and false imprisonment were dismissed.<\/p>\n
Sanchez was sentenced to 364 days in jail Monday with 225 days credit behind bars. He will have to register as a sex offense for the next 10 years.<\/p>\n
Sanchez worked with the victim, who was a waitress, at a Denny\u2019s at 1610 S. Harbor Blvd., according to police testimony at the defendant\u2019s preliminary hearing. She said he sexually assaulted her in a storage room at the restaurant on May 17, 2021.<\/p>\n
Sanchez was also accused by another co-worker from a Taco Bell in Anaheim, who said she was assaulted in a car with him, but those charges were dismissed.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"A 25-year-old man pleaded guilty and was immediately sentenced to a year in jail for kidnapping and molesting…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":122,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[36],"tags":[163,165,164,4163,4164,4165,360],"class_list":["post-3303","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-anaheim","tag-anaheim","tag-anaheim-headlines","tag-anaheim-news","tag-assaulting","tag-guilty","tag-pleads","tag-teen"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3303","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=3303"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/3303\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/122"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=3303"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=3303"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-ca\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=3303"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
