Late last month, I shared that the man authorities believed to be one of the most prolific serial child molesters in the US was sentenced to 150 years in prison. This week, his roommate Frederick Everts- whose arrest actually lead to Dean Schwartzmiller's arrest- received his own long term sentence for the molestation of three underage boys. If the two of them happen to out live their sentences, Everts will require Schwartzmiller to hang around waiting for Everts for an extra 650 years- as Everts was sentenced to 800 years.
Frederick Everts, convicted of molesting several San Jose children despite his protestation that he was legally insane at the time, was sentenced this morning to 800 years in prison.
Everts, 36, will likely appeal his conviction. A year ago, he was convicted on 15 child molestation counts; among his victims was a 3-year-old. He was also convicted on three other charges related to child porn.
Last month, his request for a new sanity hearing was denied by Superior Court Judge Alfonso Fernandez, who handed down the sentence today in San Jose.
Everts had claimed he was denied the opportunity to present a mental health expert who might have testified that Everts was insane.
According to interviews with therapists referred to in court, Everts was diagnosed as a sexual sadomasochist. ``I can't imagine with my compulsion that any amount of therapy would stop me,'' he told a probation worker in an interview.
