A 51-year-old Grass Valley man has been sentenced to 15 years in prison on rape-related charges regarding a minor. Assistant Nevada County District Attorney Chris Walsh says John Ramirez had pleaded guilty in February to what was actually a stipulated sentence…
The girl was 15 at the time, in 2018. Walsh says it’s believed the activity had been going on for at least several months…
