Fourteen years before, Cavaliere had been arrested and charged with molesting two young girls. She was one of them. The Times isn't identifying her because of the nature of the charges.

The allegations resulted in an unexpectedly light sentence: eight weeks in jail, probation and sex-offender counseling. This time, she hoped the outcome would be different...

Five times since the 1990s, Cavaliere has been arrested and accused of child sex crimes. He has twice faced capital sexual battery allegations that could have sent him to prison for life.

In spite of the many accusations, he has never been sent to prison nor ordered to register in the state's sex-offender database...

The detective, Darrell Folk... could not be reached for comment, but Clearwater records indicate he was suffering from post-traumatic stress disorder induced by his repeated exposure to "horrific images involving children."...

Because Folk couldn't testify at trial, Cavaliere again secured a deal.

It has been 18 years since Henry Keith Cavaliere was first accused of inappropriately touching a young girl. During that time he ran a Clearwater contracting business, was divorced and remarried and divorced again, and avoided spending time in prison despite five arrests on suspicion of sex crimes involving children.

The next 18 years, and whatever life remains after that for Cavaliere, will be different.

A judge on Monday sentenced Cavaliere, 49, to life in prison without possibility of parole, following his conviction in March on a felony charge of lewd and lascivious molestation.

Henry Keith Cavaliere has been accused repeatedly of sex crimes against children and seems to have nine lives in the legal system....

But then he was arrested in 2012, and ultimately convicted of lewd and lascivious molestation. He was sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole.

Case closed. Except for one thing.

This summer, Florida's 2nd District Court of Appeal said Cavaliere should get a new trial because of information that should not have been allowed at his trial.
