Plea Deal in Assault on Schoolgirl

A North Tonawanda man has pleaded guilty to sexually assaulting a 12-year-old girl. Prosecutors say 41-year-old Mitchell Brokob admitted to grabbing the girl at knifepoint outside of his Gilmore Avenue home on March 20th. Under the plea agreement he will be sentenced to the maximum of 25 years to life in prison. Brokob's attorneys say he will also plead guilty to federal child porn charges. The Erie County DA's office says they are investigating possible links to a child molestation case from four years ago. Authorities say Brokob's DNA matched evidence from the assault on the 12-year-old girl.
