A Salem man convicted of sex abuse of an 8-year-old has been sentenced to the maximum of 25 years in prison.
A Polk County jury found Markis McConico, 28, guilty on Thursday following a trial. He was sentenced Friday to 300 months in prison.
McConico isn’t eligible for early release or a sentence reduction, according to the Polk County District Attorney’s Office. He also is required to serve a lifetime of post-prison supervision when released and register as a sex offender.
According to an indictment in the case, McConico engaged in the sexual abuse in 2021.
