Court records show McCracken County Circuit Judge Tim Kaltenbach sentenced 35-year-old Samuel Hunter to life in prison Monday after a jury found him guilty in December of first-degree rape of a child under 12. The jury recommended the life sentence.
Hunter also faces a charge of first-degree sexual abuse of a child under age 12 in an unrelated case. A pretrial conference in that case has been scheduled for May 10.
