GREENWOOD, Ind. -- A Greenwood, Indiana man was found guilty Wednesday of five charges, including two counts of child molestation.
Jessie Rodarmel, 26, was arrested in Oct. 2014 following allegations he had been molesting two young girls.

Both victims told investigators that Rodarmel made them watch porn with him in June.
Officials said Rodarmel told the children he was going to "teach them about sex" and give them "sex lessons."
The victims told police that Rodarmel gave them 20-30 “lessons” over the summer and had sexual contact with them during some of those lessons.
A jury in Johnson County deliberated for two hours before returning the guilty verdict.
In addition to the two counts of child molestation, Rodarmel was also found guilty of three counts of dissemination of matter harmful to minors, Level 6 Felonies.
The victims testified against Rodarmel, recounting the details of the abuse.
“We will not tolerate crimes committed against children in Johnson County and those that violate our children will be vigorously prosecuted and held responsible," Johnson County Deputy Prosecutor Ryan Bland said.
Sentencing is set for Sept. 29.
