Marlborough Man Convicted of Aggravated Rape of a Child

Daniel Correia, 39, was sentenced Friday.

A Marlborough man has been found guilty of aggravated rape of a child and contributing to the delinquency of a minor, the Middlesex District Attorney Marian Ryan said Saturday, in a release.

Daniel Correia, 39, of Marlborough, was found guilty by a Middlesex Superior Court jury in Woburn on charges of aggravated rape of a child and two counts of contributing to the delinquency of a minor.

Middlesex Superior Court Judge Douglas Wilkins sentenced Correia Friday to 10 to 12 years in prison to be followed by five years of probation. During the probation period, the defendant will be subject to GPS monitoring for the first 3 years, and must not have any contact with the state's witnesses, or any unsupervised contact with anyone under 16. He must also complete a sex offender evaluation and treatment and comply with the regulations of the Sex Offender Registry Board.                                                                                                                                             "This defendant gave a 14-year-old alcohol and then took advantage of him sexually," District Attorney Ryan said. "His actions were purposeful and deliberate and evidenced a total disregard for a vulnerable young person. It can be extremely difficult to disclose abuse and I commend the victim’s willingness to tell authorities and a jury what happened."
