PORT ANGELES — Walter Floyd Mozingo has been sentenced to nearly 17 years in prison for child rape.
Judge George L. Wood issued the 16-year, eight-month sentence Tuesday in Clallam County Superior Court.
Mozingo, 52, of Port Angeles pleaded guilty April 7 to three counts of first-degree rape of a child.
City police said Mozingo admitted to having sex on multiple occasions with three minor girls over a span of many years.
Mozingo will be subject to lifetime supervision and registration as a sex offender, said Michele Devlin, Clallam County’s chief criminal deputy prosecutor.
A single count of third-degree rape of a child was dismissed as part of a negotiated plea agreement.
One of the victims and the victim’s family spoke at the sentencing hearing about the effects of Mozingo’s sexual abuse, Devlin said.
As part of his sentencing, Mozingo will be under community custody for life.
Wood also signed an order preventing Mozingo from having any contact with the victims for life.
