A Springfield man who allegedly claimed to have amnesia when police questioned him has been found guilty of sex crimes involving three different child victims.
David M. King, 51, was found guilty Friday of multiple counts of statutory sodomy and child molestation after a bench trial in front of Greene County Judge Calvin Holden.
Holden, who noted that the three victims were very believable in their testimony, will be the one to sentence King at a hearing scheduled for July. King faces the possibility of multiple life sentences.
The sex crimes for which King was convicted occurred in 1998 and 2018. The charges include King sexually assaulting a teenager and a 3-year-old child.
