A Madison County judge has sent a West Jefferson man away for what could amount to the rest of his life, after a jury convicted him on a series of rape charges. At the same time, authorities in Southern California say the same man is now accused of killing two people found dead in a Chula Vista apartment last year, turning a local sex-crime case into a cross-country homicide investigation.
