(AP) — A Fremont man has been convicted of sexually assaulting a child and producing child pornography.
The man pleaded no contest after prosecutors dropped other charges, including five counts of incest. The Associated Press is not naming the man, in order to protect the privacy of the child.
Prosecutors say that on Nov. 17, 2011, the man used hidden cameras to make child pornography. Prosecutors also say the man sexually assaulted a child more than 30 times between November 2010 and May 2013.
Attorneys are recommending 30- to 40-year prison terms that would be served at the same time. But Judge Geoffrey Hall told the man at a hearing Monday that the court is not bound by the agreement.
Sentencing is scheduled for March 10.
