The Collegiate Court of the Judicial District issued a suspended prison sentence of two years, which means that Franco will not go to jail if he complies with certain conditions imposed by the court.\n\nIn the same case, the minor’s mother was sentenced to 10 years in prison after being found guilty of multiple crimes against her daughter, to be served at the Rafey Women’s Correction and Rehabilitation Center in Santiago. Likewise, she must pay a fine of 30 minimum wages in favor of the Dominican State.\n\n
