Several years later, in 2016 and 2017, Valverde molested a 9-year-old girl, who reported the abuse in 2018.
Both victims testified at trial that Valverde threatened them into submission and committed similar sex crimes.
Valverde was convicted in December on three counts of oral copulation with a victim under 10 years old, five counts of lewd acts with a child under 14, a count of dissuading a witness by force or threat, and lew acts with a child under 14 with force.
