Hays County Criminal District Attorney Kelly Higgins announced today that 28-year-old Bradley Don Simpson was sentenced to 32 years in prison for indecency with a child in Hays County.
Simpson was charged pursuant to an investigation that occurred in February of 2020 following an outcry by the 8-year-old daughter of the family that had, in an act of kindness and charity, taken Simpson into their home. Simpson pled guilty on April 1, 2024, to three counts of indecency with a child.
Simpson appeared for sentencing on May 23, 2024, when Judge Tanner Neidhardt sentenced him to 15 years each on two counts and 17 years on the third count, ordering the third count to run consecutively, for a total of 32 years in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice.
The case was prosecuted by Hays County Assistant District Attorney Abigail Whitaker, who stated that the outcome in this case has brought closure to the family and justice to Simpson.
