An admitted serial rapist was sentenced to 120 years in prison Thursday after a judge denied his lawyer’s attempt to withdraw his guilty plea, prosecutors said.
Michael Keith Lollis, 45, had earlier pleaded guilty to multiple counts of sexual assault and attempted sexual assault.
DNA in 2008 had linked Lollis to three attacks on women ranging in age from 16 to 26 in Denver and six in Arapahoe County between November 2004 and July 2005.
He was suspected in other assaults where DNA was not available, authorities have said.
Armed with a knife or a box cutter and wearing a ski mask, Lollis attacked suspects after dark in unlocked cars, in parking lots or after he followed them into their apartments, investigators said after his arrest.
