32 Years for Sexual Abuse of Children

A press release from McHenry County State’s Attorney Patrick Kenneally:

ROBERT MARON SENTENCED TO 32 YEARS IN THE ILLINOIS DEPARTMENT OF CORRECTIONS FOR THE OFFENSES OF PREDATORY CRIMINAL SEXUAL ASSAULT AND AGGRAVATED CRIMINAL SEXUAL ABUSE

Patrick D. Kenneally, McHenry County State’s Attorney, announces that Robert Maron, 48, was sentenced to 32 years in the Illinois Department of Corrections on two counts of Predatory Criminal Sexual Assault and one count of Aggravated Criminal Sexual Abuse.

“We are pleased with the sentence and the assurance that this predator will no longer pose a risk to children in our community,” said Kenneally.

“Sexual assaults on children, which inflict abiding emotional and physical scars on young minds and bodies, can and will be prosecuted by this Office regardless of the amount of time that has passed.”

In 2013, an investigation by the Cary Police department found that Maron sexually assaulted two young girls under the age of ten in the 1990’s.

After Maron was charged in 2013, a third woman contacted Police and reported that she was also sexually assaulted by Maron as a young child in the 1990’s.

Maron recently pled guilty in Cook County to the offense of Criminal Sexual Assault with respect to a fourth victim and was sentenced to 6 years in the Illinois Department of Corrections.

Maron will serve his sentence from Cook County consecutively with the 32 year sentenced imposed today.

The case was prosecuted by Assistant State’s Attorney Randi Freese and Criminal Chief John Gibbons.

The lead investigator was Officer Susan Ellis of the Cary Police Department.

  1. Sentencing is light.

    He is a predator and cannot be rehabilitated and he’s only 42!

    He will still be a danger to society when he gets out.

    Not a great prosecution by the State’s Atty in my opinion.

    We need to be tougher on these crimes!

  2. OldMan? This is criminal sexual abuse. You are just talking about criminal.
