PHOENIX (CBS5) -

A former Mesa man, convicted of sexual conduct with a minor, public sexual indecency, child molestation and attempted molestation, was sentenced to 559 1/2 years in jail.

Arthur Vitasek was caught in Texas in September after being on the run from Arizona since 2005, accused of molesting his girlfriend's young son. 

Police found evidence he's been molesting boys since 1990, making him one of the most prolific child molester's in Arizona's history. Authorities believe there are more victims out there, and they're hoping they will come forward.
