- Share via
The former middle school principal of Oaks Christian School in Westlake Village was sentenced to 16 years in prison for child molestation, a prosecutor said Thursday.
The sentence for 36-year-old Jonathan Andreas will be added to the 12 years he received in February for a similar incident in Los Angeles County, according to Deputy Dist. Atty. Doug Ridley.
Andreas pleaded guilty in March to eight felony counts of child molestation in Ventura County for having sexual relations with a 13-year-old girl who attended Oaks Christian.
