SARATOGA SPRINGS -- An illegal immigrant will spend the next 25 years in jail for kidnapping, robbing and attacking a woman at knifepoint in Saratoga Springs.

Twenty-three-year-old Victor Hernandez-Perez was sentenced Tuesday in Saratoga County Court after his victim, 24-year-old Melissa Duggins, asked the judge to give Hernandez-Perez the maximum sentence.

She told the court she believed her life was over when he hit her over the head, then dragged her into his van and ordered her to strip so he could rape and kill her.

After serving his sentence, Hernandez-Perez will be deported back to El Salvador.
