A Northern Liberties teenager who previously pleaded guilty in connection with two 2008 sexual assaults -- including one in which the victim nearly died -- has been sentenced to 20-45 years in prison.
In passing sentence on 17-year-old Derek Cook, judge Benjamin Lerner said, "The only difference between a true murder case and this one is that we can hope and pray for some revival, some healing, as long as there's breath in these women's bodies."
