Robert Cissna, 79 year-old Belmont resident was convicted
March 7, 2008 in San Diego County Superior Court on one count of continuous sexual abuse of his grand-daughter.

His sentence could be up to 16 years in prison.

"You don't want to think that this ever happens in a law enforcement family."

This is another example of San Mateo County Law Enforcement protecting themselves instead of the children.

Best of luck to this child she is a HERO.

I wonder if he molested other kids. Hope they're not staying silent out of shame.
