Man Gets 11 Years For Rape, Burglary

SNOW HILL — A Virginia man, convicted on second-degree assault and first-degree burglary charges after climbing in an Ocean City hotel window last May and sexually assaulting a female victim, was sentenced on Monday to 11 years in prison.

Romer Ortuno, 30, of Springfield, Va. in December was found guilty of second-degree rape and first-degree burglary after a two-day trial in Worcester County Circuit Court. Back in court on Monday, Ortuno was sentenced to 15 years for the second-degree rape conviction, of which four were suspended. He was also sentenced to 10 years for the first-degree burglary charge and the two sentences will be served concurrently, resulting in a total of 11 years. Ortuno will be forced to serve at least 50 percent of the 11-year sentence before he is eligible for parole.

Last May 25, Ocean City Police detectives responded to Atlantic General Hospital and met with the victim of an alleged sexual assault. Through the investigation, detectives learned the victim and a group of friends were at an Ocean City nightclub earlier where they ran into acquaintances from their hometown in Virginia.

  1. 11Years for rape? WTF? We could curb this for good - remove his private parts then send him to serve the 11 Years her he'd never rape again!

  2. A Virginia man you say? Bet he wasn't born in the USA let alone Virginia.
