A Monterey Park man convicted of raping two women he met while working at a cafe in Alhambra was sentenced Thursday to 30 years to life in state prison.
Superior Court Judge Cathryn Brougham also ordered Andrew Van Bui, 27, to register as a sex offender for the rest of his life.
At his home in August 2013, Bui drugged and raped a 26-year-old woman he had met while working at a cafe, according to Deputy District Attorney Stephanie Chavez.
A week later, Bui met a 22-year-old woman at the same cafe, invited her to his home, attempted to drug her and then sexually assaulted her, according to the prosecutor.
Bui was arrested in September 2013 and has remained in jail since then.
He was convicted Aug. 27 of one count each of forcible oral copulation and rape by use of drugs, two counts of forcible rape and three counts of sexual penetration by a foreign object.
