A Gainesville man was found not guilty Wednesday afternoon on most of the counts against him involving his relationship with a young girl. Jose Luis Aguilar, 42, was acquitted on four counts of rape, two counts of aggravated child molestation, one count of aggravated sodomy and seven counts each of incest and child molestation. He was found guilty of cruelty to a child in the first degree, and two counts of sexual battery, which is a felony because of the victim’s age, carrying prison sentences of one to five years.
