A male babysitter who raped two children and filmed the assaults before setting some of the videos to music has been jailed for 100 years.
Milton Narvaez, 36, from Manhattan, assaulted a girl, thought to be as young as 7, inside a church where he worked as a janitor.
He abused his other victim, a boy who he was paid to look after, from the time he was six to when he turned 12, starting in February 2008.

Narvaez’s lawyer, Glenn Hardy, had pushed for a sentence of only 10 years, telling the court his client was the victim of childhood sexual abuse at the hands of his father.
But on Friday, a judge at Manhattan Supreme Court sentenced him to 100 years to life.
The fiend was convicted in November last year on 98 criminal counts including predatory sexual assault against a child, sexual abuse and dozens of counts of promoting and possessing child pornography.
Narvaez was employed as a babysitter by several Manhattan families, and also worked as a custodian at the Eastern Diocese of the Armenian Church in Midtown.

Beginning in February 2008, Narvaez, who also used the name Milton Gomez, repeatedly raped a boy who was in his care, and the abuse continued for six years, from the time the victim was six years old to about 12 years old.
Then on October 15, 2011, Narvaez also raped a little girl in a storage room of the Armenian Church.

The years-long sexual abuse was uncovered in 2015 in the course of a routine investigation into online child pornography that was carried out by the DA’s office’s Cybercrime and Identify Theft Unit.
Milton’s conviction at trial was announced in a written statement released by Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance, released on November 28, 2017.
‘There are few acts more horrific than the long-term sexual abuse of a child,’ Vance said.
‘As a babysitter and custodian with access to children, Milton Narvaez abused his position to rape two children, before further exploiting them by recording video of the acts.
He added: ‘The children of this City will be safer with Milton Narvaez out of our homes and churches.’
Vance said that Narvaez shared and possessed dozens of images depicting children performing sexual acts.
