30 year-old Curl Gordon Jr. is awaiting a sentencing hearing after he was convicted of indecent assault of a female child in the court room of Justice Adolph Lucas.
The child, who was 7 years-old at the time, testified in court that in October 2011, Gordon touched her inappropriately on her private parts.
In his defence, Gordon told the court that he didn't do any such thing, and that the report was made to the police because the mother maliciously influenced her child to tell the police lies on him.
The jury of 9 deliberated for a little over an hour before they returned with a unanimous verdict of guilty.
Justice Lucas has deferred sentencing until next week Friday, to give him time to prepare a mitigation plea.
It is notable that IN 2008 Curl Gordon Sr was acquitted of a unlawful carnal knowledge charge.
