What Constitutes Online Solicitation of a Minor?

The crime of online solicitation of a minor is a felony offense. If the minor is under the age of 14, the offense is classified as a second-degree felony, which carries a penalty of 2 to 20 years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000. Crimes involving all others under the age of 17 will be charged as a third-degree felony. The maximum jail sentence for this crime is 10 years.

In Texas, there are two ways that a person can be charged with online solicitation of a minor, including:

  • The individual intentionally sends sexually explicit content to a minor via the Internet or any electronic message service
  • The individual knowingly solicits a minor to meet for the purpose of engaging in some form of sexual activity

When an individual is convicted for either type of online solicitation offense, they will be required to register as a sex offender. This limits employment and housing opportunities. In addition, the offender will lose the right to possess a firearm and have a stain on his or her permanent criminal record.
