JACKSONVILLE, Fla. — The case of a Jacksonville city attorney who was accused of molesting a child between the ages of 12 and 14 has sparked outrage on social media after he was sentenced to serve two days in jail.

Christopher Ambrosio, 48, was previously charged with lewd/lascivious molestation on a victim between 12 and 16 and contributing to the delinquency of a child.

On August 30, those charges were dropped and Ambrosio was instead charged with child abuse.

During the hearing, he was sentenced to two days in jail, with credit for the two days he already served, and five years of probation.

He must also actively participate and complete sex offender treatment program and have no contact with the victim directly or indirectly.
