   An Oklahoma man convicted of kidnapping his then-12-year-old   
   stepdaughter and fathering nine children with her while he   
   imprisoned her over the course of nearly 20 years was sentenced   
   this week to life in prison, officials said   
      
   Henri Michelle Piette, 65, was convicted last year of kidnapping   
   and traveling with intent to engage in sexual acts with a   
   juvenile for the 1997 kidnapping of 12-year-old Rosalynn   
   McGinnis, whose mother he had been in a relationship with, the   
   U.S. Attorney’s Office in the Eastern District of Oklahoma said   
   in news release.   
      
   During the trial, prosecutors detailed how Piette kidnapped the   
   girl from her home in Poteau and subjected her to “physical and   
   emotional abuse” over the course of nearly 20 years.   
      
   He repeatedly raped her beginning in 2000, when the victim was   
   just 15 years old, resulting in the birth of nine children.   
      
   While in captivity, Piette moved the victim dozens of times   
   throughout the U.S. and Mexico, forcing to alter her identity by   
   dying her hair, wearing glasses and using aliases. In July 2016,   
   McGinnis, who is now in her 30s, was able to escape with eight   
   of her children to the U.S. Consular General Offices in Nogales,   
   Mexico.   
      
   “Life in prison is a sentence the law reserves for the most   
   serious offenders – offenders like Henri Michelle Piette,”   
   United States Attorney Brian J. Kuester said in a statement.   
   “For 20 years he inflicted extreme physical and emotional abuse   
   on the victim and her children. For 20 years she feared for her   
   and her children’s lives.”   
      
   Melissa Godbold, special agent in charge of the FBI Oklahoma   
   City Division, echoed that sentiment.   
      
   “For over 20 years Henri Piette inflicted immeasurable harm upon   
   his victims. We hope today’s sentencing provides closure to the   
   victims and an opportunity to heal.”   
      
   As a part of Piette’s sentence, he was required to pay a fine of   
   $50,000 and over $50,000 in restitution to the victim. NBC News   
   identified the victim as Piette's stepdaughter.
