His dream has come true.
Matthew Matagrano, 37, a convicted sex offender who repeatedly snuck into city jails, was sentenced to a decade in prison Thursday in Manhattan Supreme Court after pleading guilty to burglary.
The chubby weirdo who has an obsession with lock-ups copped to two counts on July 25, including a burglary as a sexually motivated felony for a Feb. 27 unauthorized entry at the Manhattan Detention Complex, where he showed security a gold badge and parked next to the jail using a fake Department of Correction placard.

Matthew Matagrano pleaded guilty to two counts of burglary in the Manhattan Detention Complex.
During that trip, he also clutched a jailbird's testicles and strip-searched him after pinning him to a pillar.
"Don't f--- with me. I will hurt you," the 5-foot-8 , 340-pound Matagrano told the inmate victim at the lower Manhattan facility.
Matagrano also got five years of post-release supervision under the terms of his plea deal.

Matthew Matagrano was arrested on Saturday, March 2, 2013 on charges that he impersonated a Department of Correction investigator. Officials say that for at least a week, he used phony credentials to get into multiple city lockups, including Rikers Island and the Manhattan Detention Center, where he mingled with inmates for hours.
"Using a fake badge to enter a city jail has landed a real criminal in state prison," Manhattan District Attorney Cyrus Vance Jr. said in a statement. "Impersonating a law enforcement official is not only unlawful, it poses unacceptable dangers in today's world."
Matagrano previously admitted to illegally getting into Brooklyn and Queens facilities and was expected to be charged in the Bronx for security breaches at Rikers Island and Bronx Criminal Court.
His lawyer, Carlos Martir, said at the time of his plea that Matagrano is medicated and has "emotional issues."
