James Crummel, a convicted pedophile who became the focus of angry demonstrations by his Newport Beach neighbors two years ago, will be sentenced on June 11 for molesting an Orange County teenager, authorities said Wednesday.
Orange County Superior Court Judge Frank F. Fasel set the date Wednesday after deciding that Crummel, 55, is eligible to be sentenced under the state’s three-strikes law, said prosecutor Ted Burnett. Crummel faces a maximum sentence of 60 years to life in prison.
