Man convicted of 1,068 counts in sex assaults on 2 minors
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}A central Pennsylvania man has been convicted of more than 1,000 counts of rape and related charges against two children.
Forty-one-year-old Edward Geier, of Milesburg, could be sentenced to life in prison when he returns to Centre County court on March 18.
The Centre Daily Times (http://bit.ly/1WANN0K ) reports Geier was convicted Wednesday.
{{#rendered}} {{/rendered}}The investigation began when state police found a child walking alone along a road in the dark in August 2014. That child accused Geier of four years of repeated molestation. A second child came forward in April with similar claims.
Geier was already a registered sex offender due to a 2001 indecent assault conviction.
Geier was convicted of 1,068 counts of rape, rape of an unconscious victim, statutory sexual assault and other crimes.
