MILWAUKEE (AP) — A former youth minister has been sentenced to 37 years in prison for sexual assaults against four Milwaukee women and girls and the attempted kidnapping of a fifth.

Twenty-three-year-old Isaiah D. Jordan will be on extended supervision for 11 years after he’s released from prison.

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports Jordan showed little emotion as the sentences were announced Monday. In a short statement to the judge, Jordan said he was sorry.

The sentence exceeded the prosecutor’s recommendation of 25 years. The defense attorney suggested 15 years was enough.

Assistant District Attorney Jennifer Williams said Jordan typically cruised streets and around bus stops on the city’s north side, offering rides to girls and young women. The assaults began in September 2012 and continued until October 2013.
