A Kelowna judge has sentenced David James McHale to 100 months, or 8.3 years, in prison for sex crimes against children.
McHale was arrested on the charges in 2015.
In 2017, the now 72-year-old Okanagan man pleaded guilty to two counts of sexual interference of a person under 16 and one count of the same offense involving a person under 14.
The victims are two girls and a boy who are not related to McHale.
