A Decatur man was sentenced to twelve years behind bars for sexually assaulting a 13-year-old girl.

Deputy Prosecutor Bonnie Bridges says Adam Bennett pleaded guilty to first degree sexual assault Tuesday.

Bridges says Bennett molested the girl one time. She says the victim immediately told her mother who then contacted police.

Bennett was sentenced to 12 years in the Arkansas Department of Corrections, with a ten year suspended sentence following his release.
