A child rapist from Spring Valley has been sentenced to 14 years in prison for attacking an 8-year-old girl twice.

The Rockland County District Attorney's Office also announced that Eduardo Najera, 34, of Ohio Avenue will serve 20 years of post-release supervision as part of his March guilty plea to one count of first-degree rape, a felony.

The two rapes happened between June 1 and Aug. 28, 2015, in Najera's residence.

"Today's sentence is a measure of justice for the young victim in this case who endured a traumatic ordeal at the hands of the defendant," Rockland County District Attorney Thomas Zugibe said in a statement.
