COVINGTON—District Attorney Warren Montgomery announces that Adam Parenti, 44, of Mandeville, pleaded guilty Monday (Nov. 6) to one count of molestation of a juvenile and two related sex offenses. District Judge Reginald Badeaux sentenced Parenti to 25 years in prison and lifetime registration as a sex offender.

One of the victims was 12 years old in August 2012, when Parenti began assaulting her.  The sexual abuse included buying her sex toys, forcing her to use them in his presence, and eventually using them on her. He molested a second 15-year-old victim in a similar way between May and December of 2013. He also forced the children to ingest narcotics and drink alcohol.

Assistant District Attorney Blair Alford prosecuted the case.
