A Wyandotte County jury on Wednesday afternoon convicted Christian Peterson, 22, of aggravated indecent liberties with a child.
It was in connection with an incident May 23, 2015, at a residence in Kansas City, Kan.
Sentencing will be at 1 p.m. March 11 in Division 5 of the district court.
The prosecutors’ office said because this is a “Jessica’s Law” case, the conviction carries a mandatory life sentence.
Assistant District Attorney Jennifer Tatum prosecuted the case for the state of Kansas.
