A Santo Domingo man is headed to prison after being sentenced for his role in the sexual abuse of children.

Santiago Quintana, 70, of Santo Domingo, was sentenced to 10 years in prison after pleading guilty to abusive sexual contact on September 21, 2023.

According to court documents, on January 25, 2023, the Bureau of Indian Affairs received an allegation involving the sexual abuse of children from a school principal.

A Forensic Interviewer from the FBI interviewed the victim who stated that she and her sibling had been sexually abused by Quintana for about six years, beginning when they were 6 and 7 years old.

The siblings had both witnessed Quintana sexually abusing the other.

In his plea agreement, Quintana admitted to engaging in sexual contact with the victim who was over the age of twelve years but had not yet attained the age of sixteen years.
