Curtis Dean Anderson surprised court observers today by pleading guilty to the molestation and murder of 7-year-old Xiana Fairchild.
Anderson was immediately sentenced to 50 years to life in prison during the hearing in San Jose.
The girl's aunt said the guilty plea helps some. "It is a sense of some satisfaction," said Stephanie Kalalekulu. "It's not closure. The wound's going to stay open. You know, it wouldn't be closure unless she came home."
Anderson was scheduled to go on trial for Fairchild's murder next year. Prosecutors were reportedly seeking the death penalty.
