SPOKANE, Wash. (AP) — A Spokane County Superior Court jury has determined that 59-year-old Ronald Timm is a sex predator who should be locked up indefinitely.

The Spokesman-Review reports that the jury’s decision was announced Wednesday in the civil commitment case. Timm was convicted in 1989 of statutory rape and in 1996 for first-degree rape of a child. While in prison, he told a counselor that he had molested 24 children, all between the ages of 3 and 7.

Timm served a 10-year sentence from the 1996 conviction and has spent the past three years in custody awaiting the commitment trial.
