Life Sentence For Sex Assault Convict Formerly Of Aurora: Police

AURORA, IL -- A former Aurora man has been sentenced to life in prison after her was convicted of "repeatedly sexually assaulting" two children between 2011 and 2017. Police say Timothy M. Arnold, 33, of Lawrenceburg, Tennessee, sexually assaulted two victims who were under the age of 13 while he lived in Aurora.

“Mr. Arnold is now in a place where he can no longer victimize innocent children, and where he will be forced to account for his criminal behavior," Kane County State's Attorney Joe McMahon said in a statement.

In addition to spending the rest of his natural life in prison, Arnold must register as a sex offender.
