An Orange County circuit judge sentenced Brent MacKinder to three consecutive life terms Wednesday, just minutes after a jury found him guilty of kidnapping, sexually abusing and attempting to murder a 7-year-old Winter Garden girl.
During the three-day trial, jurors learned that MacKinder abducted the girl from her home in late October, took her to a remote wooded area off the West Orange Trail, sexually attacked her, choked her and left her naked in the woods.

Circuit Judge Lisa Munyon said MacKinder's victim "had a right to be safe in her home, and she was not."
Munyon then handed 19-year-old MacKinder life sentences for kidnapping a child under age 13 and two counts of sexual battery of a child under age 12.
She added a 15-year sentence for MacKinder's attempted second-degree murder conviction and found that he should be designated a sexual predator. Munyon will soon consider whether MacKinder should be chemically castrated.
MacKinder's victim stood silently with her family at the end of the trial, dressed in a purple dress with hearts and holding a Barbie doll.
Earlier in the week she testified against MacKinder, calling him the "bad man."
"My daughter, she got her justice. The bad man will never come out," her mother said after the sentencing. "There's no way that he'll victimize anybody ever again."
The girl's parents said they expected MacKinder to have a difficult time in prison, knowing sex-crime convicts often meet with hostility from other inmates.
The mother added it was a "miracle" their daughter returned alive at a time when other high-profile child abductions in Florida ended in deaths.
She urged other parents to lock their doors and windows.
"Don't leave your children home alone for any period of time," she said.
The girl's parents left home briefly the night of Oct. 26 to return a moving truck. That's when investigators say MacKinder entered and abducted the girl.
She was found 11 hours later by cyclists riding along the West Orange Trail.
At the time, law enforcement was scouring the area. The investigation into the child's abduction was the first for the newly created Child Abduction Response Team.
On Monday, MacKinder's victim, said the "bad man" took her to the woods and choked her until she fainted. She called the man her father's "best friend" and identified MacKinder in a photo lineup, but she couldn't point him out in the courtroom.
MacKinder's lawyer, Assistant Public Defender Peter Schmer, urged jurors on Wednesday not to give too much weight to the prosecution's star witness "just because she is a cute 7-year-old girl."
He noted that the girl's testimony contained inconsistencies. For instance, she initially told investigators her abductor had a beard and black hair. MacKinder doesn't wear a beard and doesn't have black hair.
"What I'm suggesting to you is this is a whodunit type of case," Schmer said.
After questioning by police, however, MacKinder said he might have accidentally made sexual contact with the girl. And he knew many details about the case.
Assistant State Attorney Linda Drane Burdick reminded jurors that the victim identified MacKinder for police and MacKinder himself admitted to the abduction and attack. Physical evidence also connected MacKinder to the sex crimes.
A DNA expert found the girl's blood on MacKinder's boxer shorts.
"This is not a whodunit," said Burdick, who held up the dirty, blood-stained boxers in front of the jury Wednesday. "That blood is right in front of Mr. MacKinder's crotch. That's not a drop of blood. That's a lot of blood."
Burdick said the child's abduction might very well have ended differently.
"Mr. MacKinder choked that little girl until she stopped resisting, until he thought she was dead," Burdick said. "The only reason [the girl] is here today is because Mr. MacKinder failed in his attempt to kill her."
MacKinder had helped moved furniture into the home of the girl's family Oct. 26. But investigators said he returned, knocked on the front door, dragged her out of the house and carried her to the trail, a half-mile away. She was found naked and insect-bitten.
