Zachary Scheich, who prosecutors said identified himself as 17-year-old “Zak Hess,” pleaded guilty to sexual assault and other crimes.

A 27-year-old Nebraska man who posed as someone a decade younger and attended high school for more than 50 days was sentenced to at least 85 years in prison in connection with sex crimes charges, court documents show.

A Lancaster County judge sentenced Zachary Scheich last week after he pleaded no contest in July to first-degree sexual assault, attempted first-degree sexual assault, generation of child pornography — age 19 or over — and child enticement with electronic communication, according to a sentencing order and a plea agreement.

Scheich’s sentence runs a maximum of 120 years in prison, according to the order. He won’t be eligible for parole for 40 years, aaccording to KOLN-TV of Lincoln.

Sometimes you have to give props to the people in the justice system for not executing such people on the spot.

He had forged documentation like he was trying to rob a bank. He even had someone play the part of his mom. That’s a lot of fucking effort just to have sex with high schoolers. Fuck this guy.

If he wanted to fuck high schoolers, he should have run for office as a Republican
