A four-time convicted sex offender has been sentenced to life in prison without possibility of parole in Sheboygan County.
James Wappler had been convicted of sexual assault at ages 14, 15 and 18.The 36-year-old was sentenced to life Friday. He was accused of repeatedly molesting a 10-year-old girl last year and pleaded no contest to the felony.
The crime triggered a two-strikes clause in state law that mandates the life term.
Wappler asked Judge L. Edward Stengel to spare him life in prison but Stengel said the prosecution included the penalty enhancer and Wappler accepted the conviction.
Wappler also told the judge he had been physically, sexually and emotionally abused.
