[District Attorney] A 72-year-old convicted rapist was sentenced Wednesday to 520 years to life in state prison for sexually assaulting a 9-year-old girl under his care in Canyon Country.
Deputy District Attorney Ani Bailey said John Adam Whitsell was found guilty on Oct. 12 of four counts each of lewd act upon a child and oral copulation or sexual penetration with child 10 years old or younger and one count of forcible oral copulation, victim under 14 years old.
In 1971, Whitsell was convicted in Louisiana of two counts of aggravated rape in two separate cases and served seven years in prison for those convictions.
The defendant was babysitting the young family member when he abused her at her Canyon Country home between Jan. 1, 2015 and June 30, 2015, according to evidence presented at the six-day-long trial.
Case PA084603 was investigated by the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department, Santa Clarita Station.

520 years to life? That just sounds stupid. Hang his ass and be done with him.
I think if you go over 200 years you should just get the death penalty
Over 60 years death penalty
Life expectancy for jail sentence should be 100 years so if your 51 and get 50 years should be death penalty…simple as that save money from tax payers to house and pay for these people to live when they get charged for whatever crimes so my response simple put is…yes ?
So sorry for the girl. Hope this guy rots in jail
With a cell mate named BuBa !!
Jail justice will be served.
Scumbag
POS!!!!!
Why in that hell would you leave your kid with him,knowing his past..SMFH
That’s exactly what I asked myself while reading his past. Some parents need brains.
Disgusting
Isabel Y Saul Garcia maldito mejor. Lo uvieran matado
Hay no que varavaridad y por que le dejaron a esa niña a el ?
I posted this a while ago! I rather see my tax dollars go towards the build, rope and hangmen !
Just give me a hammer ! And he will be fine for life in jail !!
Elizabeth Isabella
Hope he gets hit soon
Lucy Romero
Kill him
Kill him
Whites Canyon?
Who needs him to rot in jail he needs to be handled by a firing squad!!
Why does the system wait till the second time to give these people life? Smh
The crappy part is this guy was already given a life sentence for hard labor in 1972 in Louisiana for child rape and he got out on parole. Shouldn’t a life sentence be just that? Your in until you die and they take you out in a box.
Thanks to the idiots who voted for Prop 57, this is considered a “non-violent offense”, you can expect this a-hole to get released soon.
He won’t make it out alive!!
We can only hope.
He’ll be out in 150 years for good behavior
I hope he hang him self sometime soon!!!
Dickhead
Do the respectable thing Dick???⚰️
Shirley Espinoza check this out
Just kill him!!!!
I wish they gave every rapist that sentence(+)
Just sick
Say goodnight Mr. sicko!!! Enjoy getting what you deserve!!!
he should be used as an example and than followed thru
He got this sentence because he wasn’t a strapping young college swimmer with his whole life ahead of him…
This is just unacceptable but I’m glad he got that sentence. All child abusers should get the same number of years.
Bastard
No.one googled his ass before they left there CHILD with some.old guy. Fuhhh
Death penalty.
Rip his dick off
Viejos desgrasiados cochinos esos se meresen la silla de muerte ..
520 years isn’t long enough. Sick CREEP
Taxpayers Wasted Money!!! Then They Get Special Housing And Treatment!!!Wrong Put Them In Solitary Confinement Where’s Lorena Bobbitt When You Need Her!!!
My guess is if he ends up being a model inmate they will let him out early because of prop 57.. since that is now considered a non violent crime
Stop wasting taxpayer money, throw him in the volcano!
Waste of taxpayers money to house him. Death penalty now. Prayers for the little girl and her family. They have to deal with this horrible memory the rest of their lives.
Hang his ass
No mercy!!! Ever!!!!!! Someone will shank him in prison hopefully! Disgusting pervert!
People like this disgust me!
