LOS ANGELES (CBSLA.com) — A police officer assigned to a hospital for the mentally ill in Norwalk entered a no-contest plea on Friday to charges of engaging in a sexual relationship with a 14-year-old girl.

Mario Uribe Estrada, 41, was sentenced to three years in state prison after entering his plea to two counts of a lewd act on a child.

Estrada, who worked at the Metropolitan State Hospital, was also ordered to register as a sex offender for life.
