A convicted Californian sex offender, who cut an electronic tracking device from his leg and assaulted four women in 2010, was Tuesday sentenced to 195 years in prison, the San Diego Union-Tribune reported.

A San Diego jury last month found 34-year-old Leonard Scroggins guilty of seven felonies -- including committing a forcible lewd act on a child, attempted kidnapping, robbery and assault with a deadly weapon.

The jury found that Scroggins, who already had a rape conviction, cut a GPS tracking bracelet off his ankle on May 17, 2010 and drove to the San Diego area, where he tried to rob a teenage girl and kidnap a woman a day later.

A day after that, the transient from California's Napa County stole a woman's purse and then used a knife in an attempt to kidnap a 13-year-old girl.
