The district attorney stated that a second victim was found when the juvenile was being interviewed.
Clark was taken into custody July 17, 2020, on charges of molestation and sexual battery of a minor.
He was also convicted of misdemeanor child sexual knowledge and sentenced to 228 days in prison in 2021.
Perrilloux stated that Clark would serve a total of 35 years within Lousiana Department of Corrections. The first 25 years will be “to be served with no benefits.”

Perrilloux stated that Clark must undergo chemical castration after he is released from prison. He also has to register as a sex ofender and lose all parental rights.
FOX 8 reports that chemical castration became legal in Louisiana in 2008, when Bobby Jindal, the former Governor, signed a bill into law allowing drug treatment for those found guilty of certain crimes like molestation of a child, aggravated and forcible rapes, second-degree sexual assault, aggravated incest, or aggravated crime against the environment.
The injections of medroxyprogesterone (acetate) are used to administer chemical castration. This suppresses the male’s sexual drive by lowering testosterone.
