Rockland County District Attorney Thomas E. Walsh II announced today that Sherman Brody, 46 of Haverstraw, New York has been sentenced before Judge Kevin Russo to 14 years in state prison with a period of 10 years post-release supervision after pleading guilty to one count of Course of Sexual Conduct Against a Child in the First Degree, a class “B” felony. The court also issued a full final order of protection in favor of the victim.
From late 2017 to April 2021, the defendant engaged in a course of sexual abuse against a young female child at various locations in Haverstraw, New York. The child was approximately 7 years old when the abuse began.
District Attorney Tom Walsh said, “Protecting our vulnerable young children from sexual predators is a major priority for my office. With sentencing behind us, we must not forget the victim in this case, and use all the resources available to support her.
The arrest and prosecution of the defendant is a direct result of multiple law enforcement agencies working together to get justice on behalf of the victim. I would like to thank all the law enforcement agencies involved in this case.”
