A St. Charles Township man has been sentenced to 11 in prison for the sexual abuse of a child.
On June 28, 2023, Kane County Judge Alice Tracy found 35-year-old Jesus J. Maciel Facio guilty of the offenses of Predatory criminal sexual assault of a child, a Class X felony; Aggravated criminal sexual abuse, a Class 2 felony (3 counts), and Indecent solicitation of a child, a Class 3 felony. Maciel Facio had waived his right to a jury trial. Yesterday, Tracy sentenced Maciel Facio to 11 years of imprisonment in the Illinois Department of Corrections.
“I hope this prison sentence provides some peace of mind for the victim and her family,” Kane County Assistant State’s Attorneys Tyler Cox said after the sentencing. “The victim remained strong from the beginning of this criminal investigation until the day the defendant was held accountable for his actions and sent to prison.”
The trial found that between June 2016 and June 2019, Maciel Facio had sexual contact with the victim, whom he knew. She was younger than 13 years old.
In addition to the prison sentence, Maciel Facio must register for life as a sexual offender in accordance with the Illinois Sexual Offender Registration Act.
The sentence is seven years for the predatory criminal sexual assault offense, four years for the two aggravated criminal sexual abuse offenses and two years for the indecent solicitation of a child offense. The four-year and two-year terms are to be served concurrent to one another, but consecutive to the seven-year term.
Maciel Facio must serve at least 85 percent of the seven-year term, and is eligible for day-for- day sentencing on the remainder of the sentence.
Maciel Facio receives credit for 83 days served in the Kane County jail and while on electronic home monitoring.
