Assistant State's Attorney Matthew Rodgers commented on the case:

"Mr. Holman has a long history of violence that culminated with this brutal sexual assault. This is a just sentence that will keep him separated from society where he belongs. My praise to the victim for her consistent strength and courage…"

In addition to his prison term, Holman will be required to register as a sexual offender for the rest of his life under Illinois law.
