In January, Delgado entered a plea of no contest to the charges.

The child victim stayed with Delgado and his girlfriend during a 2007 summer vacation in South Carolina, where he sexually abused and molested her in his home and office, prosecutors said.

Delgado would also travel to St. Augustine to spend time with the girl and her father, but the ulterior motive was to continue sexually abusing and molesting her, prosecutors said.
