Carlos Navedo, of Bristol Township, was found guilty by a Bucks County jury of rape of a child, sexual assault, aggravated indecent assault, indecent assault, involuntary deviate sexual intercourse, unlawful contact with a minor, and corruption of minors.
The trial began on Monday. Following the conviction, Common Pleas Judge Stephen A. Corr scheduled sentencing for Jan. 30 after Navedo undergoes an evaluation from the Sex Offender Assessment Board.
