CAMDEN – A Collingswood man has received a 32-year prison sentence for repeated sex crimes involving a 13-year-old boy.

Jason Wagner, 46, committed the offenses on numerous occasions between September 2008 and June 2009, a Camden County prosecutor said at a three-week trial in November.

Wagner was convicted of crimes that include aggravated sexual assault, aggravated criminal sexual contact and endangering the welfare of a child.

He must serve at least 20 years before parole eligibility, the Camden County Prosecutor’s Office said Friday.

Wagner also must register under Megan’s Law and will face parole supervision for life under the sentence imposed Friday by Superior Court Judge Morris G. Smith.

Wagner’s bail was revoked after a jury's guilty verdict on a nine-count indictment. He will remain in Camden County Jail pending transfer to a state prison.
