He faced a total of 16-years in jail if convicted on all counts.

Enis was arrested and than charged after authorities said he had sex with a 13-year-old girl. He told authorities, according to the Star Press, that he didn't know the girl was 13 until after they had sex, but had sex with her twice more after he learned her age.  The Star Press quoted an affidavit in which said he knew what he did was wrong.
