(Radio.com) Pete McNeal, who drummed for the rock band Cake from 2001 to 2004, has been sentenced to 15 years to life in California state prison for child molestation, according to the LA Times.

The Los Angeles County Superior Court Judge, Fred Wapner, who ruled on Tuesday, also ordered the 48-year-old to register as a sex offender for life. News of McNeal's trial first surfaced last year in March when jurors found him guilty of one count of oral copulation of a child 10 years old or younger, after an earlier trial that resulted in a hung jury.

The incident occurred during a Thanksgiving party McNeal attended, where he allegedly molested a 3-year-old girl. And it wasn't McNeal's first molestation charge. Read more here.
