A Southern California father admitted in court to sexually abusing his biological daughter after supplying her with alcohol during a visit to his home, in a disturbing case that ended with the young woman later taking her own life.
Stephen Vincent Chavez, 41, pleaded guilty Monday to one felony count of incest and one misdemeanor count of furnishing alcohol to a minor in connection with the abuse of his 18-year-old biological daughter, Makayla, prosecutors said.
The case drew outrage online after authorities revealed Chavez is expected to receive just three years in state prison, KTLA reported.
Chavez moved up his scheduled court appearance in order to enter the plea. Prosecutors said he also acknowledged abusing a position of trust and targeting a particularly vulnerable victim.
