PENNSYLVANIA -- The girl was 15 when the Erie man had sex with her and 16 and 17 when he filmed her with the dog between 2010 and 2013, authorities in Erie say.
Now the man, Kevin R. Garfield, 34, who has pleaded guilty in the underage sex case, will undergo an exam to determine whether he is a sexually violent predator.
Meanwhile, however, Garfield is free on bond, according to GoErie.com.
Following his guilty plea on Tuesday, Garfield, who has no prior record, faces as many as 34 years in state prison at his sentencing set for Oct. 21 before Erie County Judge William R. Cunningham, the website said.
Garfield pleaded guilty before Judge John Garhart to second-degree felonies of statutory sexual assault and filming sexual acts, the third-degree felonies of child pornography and corruption of minors and the summary of animal cruelty, GoErie.com wrote.
He admitted to having sex with an underage teen girl and filming her having sex with a dog.
State police charged Garfield in late 2013. Sandmeyer said the investigation started when a relative of Garfield's then-girlfriend found the images.
