https://dentondaily.com/two-women-s...year-old-had-previously-abused-them-as-girls/

to bad no one listened to these girls...

For some reason that dentondaily link won't work for me. Solved! Found the same article here:
Two women say Kotzebue man charged with killing 10-year-old had previously abused them as girls

"The cousin said she told Wilson's parents about the attacks. She said they accused her of lying and encouraged her not to tell others. The last time Wilson raped her, the woman said, he caught her near the village school, by a back road along the tundra."

Those poor girls never had a chance. Any guilt should fall on the parents for their indifference. Horrid.

As part of the plea, Wilson admitted to all conduct alleged in the initial charges and also four statutory aggravating factors to be considered in his sentencing: deliberate cruelty towards the victim, targeting a vulnerable victim, most serious conduct within the class of offense and similar prior conduct involving one or more other victims.

Wilson’s sentencing is set for Sept. 21. The State of Alaska and Wilson entered into a plea agreement prior to Wilson’s change of plea. If the court accepts the plea agreement, Wilson will be sentenced to a total sentence of 198 years with 99 years suspended.
