(MOUNT VERNON) - A 93-year prison sentence was handed down to a southwestern Indiana man for the rape and kidnapping of an Evansville woman.

38-year-old Ricky House Jr. was convicted last month. Authorities say House kept Joelle Lockwood in his trailer for two months in 2014 while he forced her into sexual acts, tied her up, locked her in a cage, and threatened her.

House's girlfriend, Kendra Tooley, is also charged in the case.
