A Petaluma man was sentenced to 14 years and eight months in prison in Sonoma County Superior Court this week on charges of furnishing drugs to a minor during sexual encounters with him for more than a year.

Robert Reeves Blakewood, 69, was convicted after pleading no contest in April to 12 felony charges including oral copulation with a minor, transporting a minor for a lewd act, providing methamphetamine to a minor, committing a lewd act on a 15-year-old, sodomy with a minor under 16 years old and possession of child pornography. He was remanded to San Quentin State Prison after his sentencing Monday.

Sonoma County District Attorney Stephan Passalacqua said Blakewood was arrested in August when the 16-year-old boy called the Petaluma Police Department for assistance. Blakewood met the Alameda County boy over the Internet and started a relationship with him, Passalacqua said.

Blakewood's relationship with the teen lasted 18 months and the offenses were committed in Sonoma, Marin and Alameda counties, Passalacqua said. Blakewood provided the victim with methamphetamine and engaged in sexual conduct with him, Passalacqua said.

Blakewood, a former physician, was charged with 27 felony and two misdemeanor counts. Seventeen of the charges were dismissed at sentencing.
