A Tarrant County man is going to prison for 45 years, that's the sentence Manuel Patterson received Thursday.

Patterson was charged with one count of aggravated sexual assault of a child younger than 14 and two counts of indecency with a child younger than 17 by sexual contact.

Patterson got 45 years on the aggravated assault charge and 12 years for the two counts of indecency. But the judge determined the terms would run concurrently.
