SCRANTON, LACKAWANNA COUNTY - A Lackawanna County jury deliberated less than an hour, Monday, before convicting a Scranton man of sexual assault.

34-year-old John Cataquet was found guilty on 8 separate counts.

The abuse happened for over a year when the victim was just 6-years-old.

Now 14, that girl testified during the week-long trial.

Prosecutors say, like so many cases, the victim waited several years before reporting the abuse.

The district attorney's office says Cataquet will serve at least 15-to-20 years when he's sentenced in a few months.
