HILLSBORO, Ore. — A 71-year-old retired Army general has pleaded guilty to sex abuse charges and agreed to a 10-year prison sentence.
John Christian Heldstab of Beaverton entered his pleas Friday in Washington County Circuit Court to three counts of sodomy and one count of first-degree sex abuse, according to The Oregonian of Portland.
He was arrested in August and faced 29 counts before the plea agreement was reached.
Evidence showed Heldstab abused a young victim for nearly a decade until the victim finally told someone when he was 19, Deputy District Attorney Kevin Barton said.
