An Olathe man has been sentenced to life in prison after a Johnson County jury convicted him of child rape and sodomy.
Timothy Ryan Hugo, 35, is accused of sexually assaulting a child under the age of 14 multiple times between June 1 and August 5, 2019, according to court documents.
On September 24, 2019, Hugo was charged with rape of a child, aggravated criminal sodomy and two counts of aggravated indecent liberties, all felonies. Hugo pleaded not guilty to all charges.
Hugo has been in jail since his arrest on October 17, 2021, according to court records. At the end of a jury trial in July, a Johnson County jury found Hugo guilty on all four counts, plus an additional child rape charge filed on April 19, 2022.
On Tuesday, a Johnson County judge sentenced Hugo to life in prison on each charge, without the right of parole for 25 years. The sentences associated with the first four charges will be served concurrently. However, in a sentencing style known as “Hard 50,” the life sentence for the second rape charge will be served consecutively. Therefore, Hugo will serve two consecutive life sentences and will not be eligible for parole for the next fifty years.
