(St. Cloud, MN) — An Otter Tail County man is pleading guilty in a child sex sting investigation out of Stearns County.
Thirty-three-year-old Joshua Jansen of Pelican Rapids admitted to a felony charge of engaging in electronic communication relating to or describing sexual conduct with a child.
An undercover officer with the Central Minnesota Human Trafficking Task Force set up the profile of a teenage girl in an online chat room last July.
Court records show Jansen made contact and quickly initiated a sexual conversation.
He is also accused of sending explicit pictures and soliciting the girl for sex.
Jansen will be sentenced in September.
