Rockland Man Admits To Yearslong Sexual Abuse Of Child

SPRING VALLEY, NY — A Hudson Valley man will pay a price for unspeakable sexual abuse against a small child.

Rockland County District Attorney Thomas E. Walsh, II announced that 23-year-old Timothy King, of Spring Valley, pleaded guilty on Tuesday to felony first-degree course of sexual conduct against a child. He is scheduled for sentencing on July 29.

King will be sentenced to ten years in prison with five years of post-release supervision. Prior to his release from prison, he will be required to register as a sex offender.

Starting in the fall of 2018 and continuing for two years, King subjected an 8-year-old child to sexual abuse at a home in the Village of Spring Valley. The nature of the sexual abuse consisted of oral sexual conduct, anal sexual conduct, and sexual contact underneath the child's clothing, according to the DA's Office. In 2024, the child told family members about the abuse who then reported the conduct to law enforcement.

"The young children of Rockland County must be protected and their abusers held accountable," DA Walsh said. "The plea of this defendant, Timothy King, sends the message that sexual predators are not welcome in Rockland."
