Ex-Kauai man gets 10-year sentence for sex assault

A 31-year-old Honolulu man was sentenced Wednesday to a 10-year prison term for sexually assaulting a 13-year-old girl.

Kauai Circuit Judge Kathleen Watanabe sentenced Joel J.P. Ibana for the assault that occurred in April 2010 when Ibana was living on Kauai.

Ibana pleaded guilty to second-degree assault and third-degree sexual assault.

A bench warrant was issued for Ibana in December 2013 after a grand jury indicted him on six counts of first-degree sexual assault and one count of third-degree sexual assault.

U.S. marshals in Tacoma, Wash., arrested him in January 2014.
