On Tuesday, he was sentenced to 90 years in prison with 57 and 6 months suspended, leaving 32 years and 6 months to serve.

While McMeans pleaded guilty, evidence would have incriminated him had the case gone to trial, according to a release from Colin D. Stolle, the Commonwealth’s Attorney for the City of Virginia Beach

McMeans started engaging in the sex acts with the minor starting on May 25, 2015, according to the release. McMeans then left town for a month due to his employment with the Navy, but returned and had sexual contact with the girl multiple times in June and July of 2015.

On at least one occasion, he used Snapchat to contact the girl.

The timeline of contact jumps to July 4, 2016, when McMeans engaged in sexual contact with the minor at a party. The contact ended on Jan 27, 2017, when McMeans was reported to police by a family member after he tried to solicit nude photos of the girl via Facebook Messenger.

McMeans was arrested shortly after the reported incident and confirmed many of the details of the Facebook conversation while being interviewed by police.
