A Palm Coast man arrested multiple times within a year on multiple charges of sex crimes against children has pled guilty and been sentenced to three years in a Florida prison.
Alan Avellan Jr., 38, pled guilty to the charges on April 24. After his three-year sentence, Avellan will be required to register as a sex offender and will be on probation for eight years, a Flagler County Sheriff's Office press release said.
Avellan's was arrested in October 2023 and March 2024 on charges that included two counts of video voyeurism, unlawful use of a two-way communication device, lewd/lascivious exhibition with a victim under 16 years old and felony child abuse, the press release said.
“This disgusting pervert knew his back was up against a wall because of the strong cases made against him by our Major Case Unit detectives so he decided to take a plea deal. While this means he will only be locked up for three years, he will remain a registered sex offender for life,” Sheriff Rick Staly said. “This outcome is all in thanks to the courageous juveniles who came forward explaining what happened to them and the dedicated detectives and prosecutors with the State Attorney’s Office.”
