He faced a nine-day trial where he denied all charges. But the jury found him guilty of 25 serious crimes, including multiple counts of rape and sexual assault.
The impact on his victims has been devastating. Many have struggled with self-harm and suicidal thoughts. One victim shared how he manipulated her with money and drugs, making her feel loved while he abused her.
