Gerald Lee Manzanalez Jr, of Edna, was convicted by a Jackson County Jury today of Attempted Sexual Assault of a Child and Attempted Indecency with a Child.

Judge Julie Bauknight handed Manzanalez the maximum available sentence, 10 years in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice for each conviction, to run concurrently.

Bauknight cited Manzanalez' demeanor in the courtroom as a notable contributor to her decision, saying he "almost seemed to experience pleasure" in hearing the testimony, some by his relative and reported victim, who was given the pseydonym Misty Miles by the court due to her status as a minor.

Bauknight called it "unfortunate" that the maximum sentence available was 10 years.

See next week's Jackson County Herald-Tribune for a full write-up on the trial.
