A California man has been sentenced to more than 6 years in prison after breaking into a woman’s house and sucking her toes, according to officials.
Cristian Solorio, a 28-year-old from Modesto, was convicted of stalking and breaking into a residence with the intent to commit a sex act, the Stanislaus County District Attorney’s Office announced on Facebook last Friday.
Solorio first saw the unnamed woman at her workplace in February 2025 and “immediately became obsessed with her,” the DA’s office said.
He would show up at her job multiple times a day, loitering outside as he waited to approach her when she left, according to prosecutors. Solorio asked the woman out multiple times and sent her a letter in which he said he “wanted to take her to Mexico,” the DA’s office said.
He harassed the woman for several weeks and learned where she lived, according to prosecutors. On the night of May 21, 2025, he went to her house, and after her father left the home, he broke in, the DA’s office said.
The woman woke up to find Solorio in her bedroom, sucking her toes, according to prosecutors.
“Although terrified, the victim managed to talk with Solorio in a friendly demeaner [sic] in an attempt to keep him calm and de-escalate his actions,” the DA’s office said.
After the woman’s other family members came into her room, they demanded Solorio leave, and then he fled, according to prosecutors. The woman reported the incident to the local sheriff’s office, which later identified Solorio and arrested him.
Stanislaus County Deputy District Attorney Vita Palazuelos told The Independent Solorio “was ID, located, and arrested within hours.”
“The victim was incredibly brave and did all the right things to get him to leave her alone,” Palazuelos added.
Solorio had admitted to breaking into the home to approach the woman, according to prosecutors. But he pleaded no contest to stalking and breaking into a residence with the intent to commit a sex act.
When a defendant pleads no contest, they do not admit guilt, but also do not contest the charges against them, according to California-based Southwest Legal Criminal Defense Attorneys.
Solorio was given the maximum sentence of 6 years and 8 months.
