A PEDO convicted of sexually assaulting a 10-year-old girl skipped sentencing to hook-up with an online date, officials say.
Michael “Mike” Alan Khatoonian from California was convicted of sexually abusing a child before he bolted to Michigan to meet a 22-year-old woman.
The sicko was arrested by cops there after a Sacramento jury had found him guilty of multiple charges relating to the horrific child abuse.
The Tuscola County Sheriff’s Office say Michigan State Police and the US Marshals tracked Khatoonian down in their county before his arrest.
Their Facebook statement read: “In this day and age parents must continually check on their children to make sure they are not making bad decisions.
“Criminals do not know any boundaries. Michael Khatoonian is awaiting extradition in our jail back to California.
“He left in the middle of his trial in Sacramento and fled to our county to be with a girl.”
“He was convicted of the California charge of sexually assaulting a child,” concluded their Feburary 5 post.
The convicted perv was en route to rendezvous with a woman he met online, according to local reports.
His unnamed date from Cass City in Tuscola reportedly didn’t know his real identity because he used an alias.
She wasn’t aware her date had been convicted of two counts of forcible sexual abuse and one count of lewd and lascivious touching of a child under 14.
The Sacramento District Attorney’s Office said the incidents occured while he was at home with his underage victim and her mom.
“[Khatoonian] sexually assaulted the 10-year-old daughter when her mother was in the bathroom and also when her mother was sitting on the other side of Khatoonian on the couch,” the DA said.
Khatoonian had prior strike convictions: one back in 2000 involved battery causing serious bodily injury.
Another conviction six years later was for arson on an inhabited structure.
It would appear nothing criminal occurred while Khatoonian was there, authorities told WNEM.
But California has a Three Strikes law which could mean a hefty prison sentence for this convicted child abuser.
When a defendant is convicted of any felony with two or more prior strikes, they face a mandated state prison term of at least 25 years to life.
Khatoonian may be looking at 85 years to life in prison for the sexual assault charges, according to the DA’s office.
It hasn’t been confirmed if he is facing additional charges following his date-break to Michigan.
