James Allen Wamsley apologized and told a Benton County Superior Court judge on Friday that he accepted responsibility for raping a 9-month-old boy he was baby-sitting.

Then Judge Robert Swisher sentenced the Richland teen to spend at least 131/2 years in prison.

Wamsley, 17, pleaded guilty in September to first-degree child rape. According to court documents, he was looking after the baby and a 3-year-old for about nine hours on May 28 when he sexually assaulted the infant.

When the infant's mother, Tabitha McBean, returned home, she saw blood in the baby's diaper and took him to Kadlec Medical Center in Richland. Later, the infant was transferred to a Spokane hospital for surgery.
