The sentencing came after Vicario was convicted of two counts of rape, two counts of sexual battery, and one count of tampering with evidence last week. As WBNS reported, he was also found not guilty of two additional rape and sexual battery charges.
The charges stemmed from two incidents involving a minor, one in October 2022 and another in November 2023.
Vicario, a lieutenant colonel with the Ohio National Guard, was a drilling Guardsman. He also worked full-time as a federal technician, WBNS reported.
