The son of Oakland City Council President Ignacio De La Fuente was
sentenced Friday to 14 years in prison for sexually assaulting four
women, all but one of whom were prostitutes.
De La Fuente Jr. pleaded guilty to five felony charges in May during
the middle of his trial, including two counts of rape. The agreement
allowed him to avoid a possible sentence of 75 years to life.
He was accused of raping four women, three of them prostitutes and
the fourth a 15-year-old girl whom prosecutors say he mistook for a
prostitute. The attacks happened between October 2003 and just
before De La Fuente Jr. was arrested in April 2005.
