CINCINNATI -- A Cincinnati man who admitted he began having sex with his girlfriend's daughter when she was 10 and impregnated her has been sentenced to 28 years in prison.
Forty-one-year-old Michael Chaffer pleaded guilty to charges of felonious assault and two counts of rape and was sentenced Monday in Hamilton County Common Pleas Court.
The baby was born in November 2007 -- after the girl turned 11 -- and is in the care of relatives.
Prosecutors say a plea deal with Chaffer allowed the girl to avoid having to testify in court and ruled out a possible life sentence for Chaffer.
