A Calhoun County Circuit Court jury on March 30 found Sam Sanders guilty of harboring a runaway and third- and fourth-degree criminal sexual conduct. A judge sentenced him Thursday.
Defense lawyer Ward McDonough has said his client should have used better sense and says the girl's story changed over time.
Authorities say the girl knew Sanders and called Sanders in February 2010, then ran away from home. They say she stayed with him while police searched for her.
