Convicted rapist Seth Mull, already facing a prison term that will likely keep him behind bars for the rest of his life, received additional time in a sentencing connected to a guilty verdict on promoting prostitution charges.
The 33-year-old, who was charged after it was discovered he was using a tablet rented from the prison to prostitute a 27-year-old woman, received a sentence of 19 months to seven years in prison, according to a release from the Northampton County District Attorney’s Office. The sentence will run consecutive to his current sentence of 75 years to life, imposed in 2018 following a conviction in the rape of multiple women and human trafficking.
