A man who robbed three women and attempted to sexually assault two of them after deliberately causing fender-benders that prompted the victims to pull over late at night on a Riverside freeway was sentenced Monday to 14 years in state prison.
Joseph Pete Macias, 35, pleaded guilty last month to assault with intent to commit rape, penetration of a victim with a foreign object, assault likely to produce great bodily injury and a sentence-enhancing allegation of using a weapon in the commission of a sexual offense.
One of the victims confronted Macias in court, calling him a “coward” and “demonic” for preying on her and the other women.
