Drees was given a suspended 10-year prison sentence, 5 years of probation, must register as a sex offender and submit a DNA profile. He must have no contact with the victim for 5 years. Drees must also pay $23,064.83 in fines and other fees.
SUBJECT IS INNOCENT UNTIL PROVEN GUILTY
They will never see the fine money. Someone should just shoot him for what he did to that little girl.
23k in fines? No wonder he walked – If this were my daughter he better RUN out of the state.
