AURORA — A former city employee was sentenced to 29 years in prison Wednesday after he pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting a 15-year-old boy.
Jermaine Vaden’s sentence will be followed by 20 years of sex offender intensive probation, 18th Judicial District Court spokeswoman Kathleen Walsh said in a news release.
Vaden was hired in May as a seasonal worker for the city parks department. He was working at the city-sponsored KidSpree event July 16 when he met the boy whom he is accused of assaulting.
