A 25-year-old man has been sentenced to more than 13 years in prison for sexually assaulting a woman and her 5-year-old daughter last year in Multnomah County, Oregon.

Alfredo Guzman-Padilla pleaded guilty to two counts of first-degree sex abuse and one count of first-degree burglary, KOIN reported.

The charges stemmed from Guzman-Padilla breaking into the victims’ apartment in Wood Village, New Jersey, in January last year and sexually assaulting the mother and daughter. He had fled before authorities arrived.

He was caught hours later outside an apartment complex near where the incident occurred.

Guzman-Padilla also pleaded guilty to two counts of public indecency stemming from conduct prior to his arrest.

He has been sentenced to a total of 13 and a half years in prison, Multnomah County District Attorney Mike Schmidt announced Friday.

“One day you will have to face not only the horrific attack you did to me but the horrific attack you placed upon my daughter… You did not win. It was not OK and what is OK is you being put right where you belong,” the woman who was assaulted said in court during his sentencing.

Last year, the then-26-year-old mother gave an interview to KPTV recounting the assaults. Talaya Waliser said at the time that she wanted to take her story public to hold the suspect accountable and encourage any other possible victims to come forward.

The woman recalled being woken up by her daughter at around 4:36 a.m. When she began nursing her 6-month-old son, she said she saw a dark, shadowy figure in her doorway with his pants down to his ankles.

“I just remember grabbing my son and scooting up all the way to my headboard,” she told the outlet.

Waliser said she was strangled and suffocated by then-24-year-old Guzman-Padilla before she was sexually assaulted. She revealed that he also choked her young daughter and sexually assaulted her, too.

“I remember kicking and kicking and kicking. And I remember punching him in the side of the head. And he just was smiling and laughing the whole time,” she recalled.

Three hours after the attack, police nabbed Guzman-Padilla when he was naked at another apartment building. He was positively identified by Waliser through mugshots.

Guzman-Padilla had a criminal history, having been convicted for assault in 2017 and arrested in 2019 for public indecency.
