PEORIA, Ill. – A man will spend decades in prison for multiple criminal sexual assault crimes.
The Peoria County State’s Attorney’s Office says 41-year-old Demarquis Turner was sentenced Wednesday to serve 42 years in the Department of Corrections.
Turner pleaded guilty in November last year to three separate cases of criminal sexual assault over a 12-year period.
Prosecutors say some of the women were complete strangers to Turner, and he was identified and linked to each assault through DNA evidence.
Turner was sentenced to 14 years for each of the three cases, and must serve one after the other.
