SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (AP) — A Sioux Falls man has been sentenced to 90 days in prison for rape and sexual contact with young girls.

The Argus Leader reports ( ) 22-year-old Tyler Lee Schlotman was sentenced Thursday on one count of rape and one count of sexual contact with a child under 16.

Authorities say the charges involved two victims, one of whom he met on Facebook.

Schlotman faced up to 30 years in prison.

Prosecutors say 19 other charges, some of which involved three additional victims, were dismissed as part of a plea agreement.

Judge Robin Houwman told Schlotman that the 90-day prison sentence was meant to be a “reminder of what could possibly happen” if he violated the conditions of his suspended sentence.
