MONTICELLO – A man, who raped a woman in her own bed while her four-year-old son was in the room, was sentenced in Sullivan County Court Friday to nine years state prison followed by five years or parole. Once Heriberto Tirado-Reyes, 33, of Liberty completes his sentenced, he will be deported, said Chief Assistant District Attorney James Farrell.

Reyes, who was sentenced for first-degree rape, admitted to forcibly raping the woman, who he knew. Her child ran from the room and summoned help which stopped the attack.

Liberty Police investigated and arrested Reyes. Farrell said many of the witnesses spoke only Spanish and the fact that Chief Rob Mir is fluent in the language “aided tremendously in this case."
