Devin Masters, who pleaded guilty to three counts of first-degree criminal sexual conduct, was accused of taking the toddler to a motel in 2012, where he tied her arms and legs to bedposts and raped her.
He admitted to assaulting the girl three times over the course of eight days, the Detroit Free Press reported.
Masters filmed himself engaging in multiple sex acts with the toddler before urinating on her in a video that he emailed to others in exchange for more child pornography, the FBI said.
The girl’s mother begged the judge to keep Masters locked up, testifying
that her daughter is still traumatized at the age of five.
The girl, who was sexually abused until she was three, remembers the abuse and has spoken about it, mlive.com reported.
Trusock, who sentenced Masters to between 50 and 200 years on Thursday, said: ‘I want to send a clear message to the Parole Board, when you first come up for parole as a 79-year-old, that I don’t want you out.
‘This incident is one of the most egregious things that I’ve ever had to deal with in dealing with criminal cases for 31 years.
‘There is just no justification, there is just no excuse for this. You are truly an evil individual and we need to make sure that you are never allowed in society.’
