ALBANY, GA (WALB) - An Albany man prosecutors say is a serial child molester will spend the rest of his life in prison.

53-year-old James Royal was convicted Thursday of molesting a 13-year-old female relative last May.

Prosecutors presented evidence that he also molested two other generations of family members.

Royal was sentenced to life in prison plus 40 years with no possibility of parole.
