Summary
Alexander Aguilar pleaded guilty to a second-degree offense (count 5) involving a minor. Under a plea agreement the court imposed a 16-year prison term, a $1,500 fine, an affirmative family-violence finding, lifetime offender registration and a ban on residing with minors.
A judge accepted a plea by Alexander Aguilar to a second-degree offense involving a minor and sentenced Aguilar to 16 years in prison and a $1,500 fine. The plea included an affirmative finding of family violence, lifetime offender-registration requirements (Chapter 62) and conditions prohibiting contact with the complainant and residing in any home with minors.
The court conducted the standard plea colloquy: Aguilar and his attorney confirmed receipt of discovery, waiver of jury trial, competency and understanding of admonishments, and that the defendant voluntarily entered the plea. The state proceeded on count 5 and waived other counts and an enhancement; defense counsel confirmed the plea agreement and the defendant’s understanding of the consequences.
At sentencing the judge emphasized the seriousness of the offense and the court imposed the agreed term: 16 years in prison, a $1,500 fine, credit for any time served, no contact with the complainant, chapter-62 registration and an explicit prohibition on residing with households containing minors. The judge explained that the restriction against residing with minors is intended to prevent future contact with children while the defendant remains under supervision or custody. The trial-court certification of rights to appeal was placed on the record.
