SAN JOSE, Calif. " A San Jose man has been sentenced to 169 years to life in prison for sexually assaulted women he met through erotic services listings on Craigslist.

Twenty-six-year-old Kamari Nelson was convicted late last year on various sexual assault-related charges, robbery and kidnapping.

Prosecutors say at least three women came forward to report being attacked by Nelson after he answered their Craigslist ads touting erotic services. During a search of Nelson home, police found videotapes of parts of the attacks.

He previously was convicted of assault with a deadly weapon in 2002.

Nelson was sentenced May 8 in Santa Clara County Superior Court.
