SD Woman Gets Prison for Child Sex Crimes - Updated

(Sioux Falls, South Dakota) In October 2009, 44-year-old Cara Prince pleaded guilty to sex crimes against a child under 16. A pre-sentence investigation and a psycho-sexual evaluation were ordered.

Yesterday, Cara Prince appeared in a Lincoln County courtroom and was sentenced to 15 years in prison for multiple counts of sexual abuse against three young relatives.
In court Friday Lincoln County States Attorney Tom Wollman said this case is, "Nothing short of disgusting." Prince had oral sex with a 14-year-old female relative, and that's why she's headed to prison for 15 years.

Cara Prince cried in a Lincoln County courtroom Friday as she apologized to the 14-year-old victim for what she did to her, something Prince now has to think about in prison.

"It's the first time I've ever worked on a case like this where a female offender has perpetrated an act upon a 14-year-old girl like this," Lincoln County States Attorney Tom Wollman said.

Prince pleaded guilty to sexual contact with a minor and got the maximum sentence of 15 years in prison. Wollman says it was best for Prince to plead guilty, so the victim would not have to re-live the events in court.
Co-defendant Paul Churchill, 41, awaits a court appearance where he faces more serious charges.
