A singer and musician from Plano who competed on the 16th season of the music reality show 'American Idol' accepted a plea charge on a sexual assault charge.

Plano singer and musician Ron Bultongez received an 8-year probation sentence as part of his plea deal with the Tarrant County District Attorney's Office.

Bultongez took to social media after his release to lambast the coverage of his case, calling it “interesting to say the least.” “Hundreds of people and a few press outlets have wanted to interview me; understandably,” he wrote in 2021. “I declined because I do not trust the media and their false narratives.”

According to the criminal affidavit filed with Bultongez's case, his accuser reported the abuse two months before police filed criminal charges, claiming the two had sex several times in different cities around the state when she was 16 years old. The unidentified teenager also said Bultongez did not wear a condom and brought Plan B pills for her. in 2018 and made it into the top 24 for the show's 16th season.

Bultongez was eliminated in the second group of contestants, but his hometown of Plano still celebrated his victory and he continued to pursue a music career. He's released several singles and EPs on Apple Music, Soundcloud and other music platforms, including 2018's"Learning to Love," which peaked at No. 26 on the Apple Music charts.
