A Kansas City man has been sentenced to 180 years in prison for sexually assaulting two girls for years. The jury had recommended 555 years. Circuit Judge John O’Malley told Kenneth Fitzwater he would spend the rest of his life in prison for what the judge described as the most dispicable, disgusting and repulsive criminals actions recently seen in his court. Jurors in July convicted Fitzwater of sexually abusing the two girls from 1998 until 2002. One girl was routinely tied up in an attic, gagged and sexually assaulted from the time she was 12 until she was 14. The other girl suffered sexual abuse from the time she was 11 until she was 13.
