Reno man convicted of sexually assault, abuse of daughter

RENO, Nev. A 42-year-old Reno man has been convicted of sexually assaulting and abusing his seven-year-old daughter.

A Washoe County district court jury found Roberto Gonzalez guilty today of two counts of sexual assault on a child and one count of child abuse causing substantial bodily harm.

Washoe County District Attorney Richard Gammick says the child abuse charge stems from the fact that Gonzalez transmitted genital herpes to the child. He says the crimes occurred last April,

Gonzalez faces up to life in prison with little chance for parole over the next 50 years. A sentencing date has not yet been set.
