Hamilton County, IN and mdash; For the first time, a Hamilton County soldier is speaking out about her former Army recruiter who is facing prison time for sexual battery and abusing his authority. She's one of seven young women who encountered the attacks.

This was definitely a life-altering event for us, and now I think we just all want to turn it around and make it life-altering for him," she said.

Indiana National Guard Recruiter, Eric Vetesy, 39, pleaded guilty to ten charges of sexual battery, official misconduct and corrupt business influence last week. He admitted to groping and forcing sexual acts on as many as seven high school girls he recruited in Hamilton County. In exchange for the plea, a rape charge was dropped

I will be happy if he gets the prison time and becomes a registered sex offender

Vetesy's sentencing is July 3rd. The prosecutor's office did not return our calls for comment. At least two of the victims are now serving in Iraq.
