Las Vegas, Nevada - A jury has found Chester Stiles guilty on all 22 counts in connection with the molestation of two girls.

The jury heard closing arguments Monday and began deliberations Tuesday.

On Friday, jurors watched the 15 minute video tape that allegedly shows the sexual assault of a three-year-old girl.

The mother of a 6-year-old girl who Stiles sexually assaulted testified in the trial, saying she called police after the girl told her mother Stiles kissed and fondled her.
