A Long Valley man was sentenced Friday to seven years in prison for sexually grooming a 15-year-old girl he met through a Pennsylvania church, the Daily Record reported.

Christopher Remaly assaulted the girl in 2014, when he was 27. The victim said Remaly held himself up as a father figure and referred to her as his daughter. The victim also said she was a virgin at the time of the assault.

Remaly, a father of two children, previously had pleaded guilty to one count of sexual assault.

In addition to his prison sentence, he must remain under parole supervision for 15 years following his release and register as a Megan's Law offender.
