Paul Bowman, 48, was sentenced on Tuesday after a jury found him guilty in May of 10 counts of rape and five counts of sexual assault.

Prosecutors say Bowman initiated sexual contact with the victims when they were not even 13 years old, and that contact continued for many years until police were notified in early 2023. Bowman fled the area and was later arrested on the charges. He was also classified as a Level 3 sex offender.
