A man in Florida was handed a shockingly light sentence after he lured a 13-year-old to buy him food before he tossed her in his car and recorded himself raping her for hours.
Bryan Oyanguren Rosado, 25, was handed 25 years behind bars after he pled guilty to the horrific kidnapping and rape of a girl in Temple Terrace.
Last week, Rosado faced a minimum of 330 years behind bars if convicted. However, a plea deal secured him a 25-year sentence.
'Quite candidly, in my unit's review, the number probably should have been higher than this,' Assistant State Attorney Joseph Kudia of the office's special victims unit told the Tampa Bay Times.
Rosado stole the young girl from a parking lot in the Doral Oaks apartment complex, the outlet reported.
He had approached a group of kids and promised them $20 if they bought him food from a nearby Burger King and, while most of the children declined, the girl agreed, police said.
The teenager arrived back with the food just before 6pm and handed it over to him through his car window, the outlet reported.
According to court records obtained by the outlet, Rosado drove in the direction of the exit before he spun back around and pulled up near the girl, grabbed her with his hand over her mouth and pushed into the passenger seat.

Rosado pled guilty to abducting the teenager before raping her in three different ways, recording portions on his phone and returning her to an office parking lot
The young girl returned around three hours later and recalled a horrific sequence of events to law enforcement.
According to the outlet, she told police that as he sped away, she had rolled down the window and yelled for help. Rosado pulled over and ordered her to stop screaming before she tried to jump out of the car.
She was pulled back into the car by her jacket and he locked the doors and windows, the girl recalled, the Tampa Bay Times reported.
After he drove her to a construction site near Temple Terrace Highway, he parked and took off his pants.
According to the arrest report obtained by the outlet, Rosado raped her in three ways and said he would drive her back to Doral Oaks if she promised not to tell anyone about the incident.
As he drove her back, however, police had been called after people had heard the girl screaming for help hours ago and the area was overrun with officers.
He instead drove her to a nearby office parking lot and let her out, the outlet reported.
Hillsborough State Attorney Suzy Lopez said the acceptance of the sentencing was to spare the victim from having to endure the trauma of going to trial
A tip eventually led police to Rosado and he was arrested on March 4.
On Rosado's phone, police discovered a series of disturbing videos reportedly depicting the rape. In addition to the 20 videos of the incident, police found 60 other images and videos of child sex abuse material, prosecutors said.
Hillsborough State Attorney Suzy Lopez said the acceptance of the sentencing was to spare the victim from having to endure the trauma of going to trial.
In court, Hillsborough Circuit Judge Mark Kiser asked about the low sentencing and whether the victim approved.
Kudia said she was and noted the 'mental and emotional anguish' of having to testify at trial.
'That's why it's so low?' Kiser asked, according to the outlet.
'I wouldn't say it's low. Comparatively, it could be higher,' Kudia answered.
Before he entered his guilty plea, Rosado asked to send a letter 'for the victim's family's benefit,' the outlet reported.
'Just to show my remorse. To just allow them to know that I feel like that's something they deserve at least,' he added.
Rosado faced life in prison if convicted, and the 25-year deal was the best he would get, according to the Tampa Bay Times.
