A jury has found a Boone County man guilty on 89 counts of sexual crimes.
60-year-old Howard Dotson faces up to 3,000 years in prison for 10 years of sexual abuse against his four step-daughters.
Court documents say Dotson fathered a child with one of the victims.
Dotson left Boone County the day before his sexual assault trial was set to begin in 1998.
Dotson was arrested in October in Grand Junction, Colorado for allegedly drinking and driving.
