LIVINGSTON, Louisiana (TCD) — A 54-year-old man was sentenced to 50 years in prison and had to be castrated for raping and impregnating a 14-year-old girl.
21st Judicial District Attorney Scott Perrrilloux announced that on Monday, April 22, a judge sentenced Glenn Sullivan Sr. to 50 years in prison with physical castration after he pleaded guilty to four counts of second-degree rape.
The investigation began in July 2022 when a young woman told Livingston Parish Sheriff's Office investigators that Sullivan raped her multiple times when she was 14 years old. According to prosecutors, the girl was pregnant and a DNA test revealed that Sullivan was her father.
The district attorney's office said Sullivan “groomed the victim” and threatened harm to the girl and her family “to prevent the young woman from disclosing the rape.”
“Many of these types of incidents go unreported out of fear. It must have taken incredible strength for this young woman to be able to speak the truth in the face of threats and adversity,” Perrilloux said.
“Sex crimes against youth are some of the most vicious crimes we prosecute,” added District Attorney Brad Cascio, who prosecuted the case. Our community.”
