Cincinnati Enquirer
Cazembeode Barham is about a year and a half into a 16-year prison sentence for the rape of a 6-year-old, court records show. On Tuesday, he was indicted on new charges involving a different victim.
Barham, 26, was convicted on two counts of rape in February 2020. Prosecutors said he repeatedly raped a 6-year-old between 2008 and 2010 when Barham himself was a juvenile teenager.
Court documents said he admitted to the offense and told detectives the child wanted to participate in the sex acts.
Midway through a bench trial, Barham agreed to plead guilty to two of the charges. He initially faced six counts of rape, which could have amounted to a 48-year prison sentence.
