An Elmwood, Illinois man who sexually assaulted a mentally challenged 7-year-old girl learned his fate Friday morning.
The assault took place on the morning of August 21, 2015 at the Hatzer Nordstrom sale/auction on the south edge of Annawan.
Danyel Smith lured the girl into a motor home at the auction and assaulted her. The victim was not known to Smith.
Smith was charged with predatory criminal sexual assault on a victim under the age of 13.
Later Smith was also charged with aggravated kidnapping of an intellectually disabled victim under the age of 13.
