A 75-year-old Lancaster County man was sentenced to 100 years in prison after a jury found him guilty earlier this year of sexually abusing two girls over the course of seven years, the county district attorney’s office said.
On Sept. 3, Judge Jeffrey Conrad handed down the sentence to Nathan W. Smith, of Salisbury Township.
During a two-day trial in March, the two victims testified Smith’s repeated sexual abuse started around 2004 and took place at his residence and in his car.
Both victims, now 25 years old, said Smith’s abuse started when they were 5. One victim said the abuse ended when she was 9, while the other said she was 11.
While the abuse was ongoing, Smith told the victims not to tell anyone about the assaults.
Police launched an investigation into Smith in August 2021 aft
