SEDGWICK COUNTY —A Kansas man who offered women rides and then sexually assaulted them has been sentenced.

District Judge Seth Rundle sentenced Marlon Montoya, 41 of Wichita, to just over 7-years in prison.  In April Montoya pled guilty  to two counts of aggravated sexual battery.

On December 31, 2021, a 54-year-old woman said Montoya sexually assaulted her in a parking lot in northeast Wichita. The woman told police she had been walking and decided to get into Montoya’s car. Montoya drove to the lot in the 1000 block of N. Topeka and forced her to have sex at knifepoint.

In January of 2022, Montoya picked up a 63-year old-woman. He sexually assaulted her in a park on east 16th St. North. 

On January 27, 2021, police located Montoya in 1000 block of E MacArthur in Wichita and took him into custody.
