On Thursday, April 11, 2019, Marcus Alexander Kelley was sentenced to 11 years in prison for Indecency with a Child. Kelley was seeking probation from the Court. Our office presented testimony from numerous witnesses, and urged the Court to send Kelley to prison. Honorable Judge Russell Wilson heard the case and ultimately sentenced Kelley to 11 years TDCJ. Because our victim had the courage to come forward, other children will be protected from this predator while he serve...s his time. When released, Kelley will be a registered sex offender for life. We hope this sentence will allow the healing process to begin and bring some closure to the victim, the victim’s family, and the citizens of Karnes County.
Thank you to the Karnes County Sheriff’s Office, the Children’s Alliance of South Texas, and all those who helped bring this predator to justice.
We are honored to be the voice for our victims.
