23 year old Clayton G. Watts was found guilty of criminal sexual assault by force and aggravated criminal sexual abuse of a child on Monday.
The April 2020 charges stem from allegations that Watts had forced sexual contact with a 15-year-old girl in November 2019, according to charging documents.
Watts has five additional counts of criminal sexual assault in three separate cases pending trial, with status hearings set for September 7
