(CLEVELAND) - Justin Christian, the man who tried to abduct a ten-year-old Elyria girl in February 2016, and then kidnapped and raped a six-year-old girl on the west side of Cleveland in May 2016, is pleading guilty.
Justin Christian was arrested thanks to a technique known as familial DNA, where his DNA was compared to a large database to find familial connections. Christian faced up to life in prison, but because of the plea deal he'll spend 35 years behind bars.
