Carol Stream Man Sentenced To 55 Years For Sex Assault Of Child

CAROL STREAM, IL — A Carol Stream man has been sentenced to 55 years in prison for sexually assaulting a girl with spina bifida, according to the DuPage County State's Attorney's Office.

Adan Rodriguez-Ocampo, 55, was found guilty in January of predatory criminal sexual assault, aggravated criminal sexual assault and aggravated criminal sexual abuse in connection with incidents that took place between 2007 and 2015.

According to the DuPage County State's Attorney's Office, Rodriguez-Ocampo sexually assaulted the girl, who was younger than 13, at her home and other locations. The girl's mother discovered the abuse after she found sexually explicit text messages from Rodriguez-Ocampo on her daughter's cellphone.

Rodriguez was taken into custody March 5, 2015, after an investigation by the DuPage County Children’s Advocacy Center. He was held on $1 million bond and remained in custody since that date.

DuPage County State's Attorney Robert Berlin said in a statement, "Mr. Rodriguez-Ocampo’s abhorrent behavior has certainly earned him each and every year of his fifty-five-year sentence. The repeated sexual assault of a young girl with special needs is nearly incomprehensible and thankfully Mr. Rodriguez-Ocampo will now, in all likelihood, spend the rest of his life behind bars where he will be unable to sexually prey upon anyone."

Rodriguez-Ocampo must serve 85 percent of his sentence before he becomes eligible for parole.
