Investigators said that Creadle was familiar with the six-year-old, and that an individual living in the victim's home in the township witnessed the February incident there and informed the youngster's parents.

Sentencing follows psychological evaluations for Creadle. Prosecutors are asking for a 15-year prison term, parole supervision for life, registration as as sex offender under Megan's Law and a ban on contact with the victim under Nicole's Law.
