It’s common for Internet users to have fantasy chats with other adults who pretend to be children or teenagers under 17 years old. If the minor appears to be persistent in meeting you, there’s an excellent chance you may be having a fantasy chat with an undercover cop who’s setting you up for a sting operation. Whether you use the Internet to have fantasy relationships with children or you want to have a real connection with a minor, you place yourself at risk for arrest and incarceration. In Texas, soliciting a minor online is a felony offense, which means steep fines, significant jail time, and having to register as a sex offender if you are convicted. Online solicitation of a minor is a serious offense that has life-altering consequences. The stakes are too high to be without a qualified and skilled attorney. If you have been charged with online solicitation of a minor, the most important decision you will make is hiring a Bryan-College Station child sex abuse lawyer to represent you.
