BENTONVILLE — A Rogers man was sentenced to 16 years in prison after admitting to having a sexual relationship with a 13-year-old girl.

Hector Enrique Carranza, 21, pleaded guilty Monday to sexual assault in the third degree, a Class D felony; sexual indecency with a child, a Class D felony; and failure to appear, a Class C felony. He pleaded guilty under a plea agreement his attorney reached with a deputy prosecutor.

Carranza was arrested June 26, 2012.

Carranza admitted to engaging in sex acts with the girl. He failed to appear in court for his arraignment.

Circuit Judge Robin Green accepted the plea agreement and Carranza’s guilty pleas. Carranza was sentenced to 10 years in prison for the sexual assault and six years for the indecency charge. The sentences will be served consecutively, which means Carranza must serve 16 years in prison.

He received a six-year suspended sentence for the failure to appear charge.

Carranza will be required to register as a sex offender, and he must complete the prison’s sex offender treatment program.

He received 257 days of credit for time he spent in the Benton County Jail awaiting trial. He must pay $1,670 in court-associated costs.

Carranza was ordered not to have any contact with the girl. He also was told he could not have unsupervised contact with minors.
