COUNCIL BLUFFS, Iowa (AP) — A Carter Lake man accused of sexually assaulting minors has pleaded guilty in the case. The Daily Nonpareil reports that 42-year-old David Trejo pleaded guilty Monday to one count of sexual exploitation of a minor and one count of soliciting lascivious acts with a minor as part of a plea agreement.
According to court documents, Trejo said he believed one girl he met online was 19 and did not find out that she was 14 until after they had sex several times. Court documents say another girl involved in the case was under the age of 14. Trejo faces up to 15 years in prison. He is scheduled to be sentenced July 11.
