29-year-old Lawrence man charged with aggravated indecent solicitation of two 9-year-olds

A 29-year-old Lawrence man was charged Monday with two counts of aggravated indecent solicitation of a child.

Prosecutors allege that the man tried to entice or solicit two 9-year-olds to perform sexual acts on Friday. He was arrested that day on suspicion of two counts of aggravated indecent liberties.

Douglas County District Court Judge Pro Tem James George set a $60,000 bond for the man, who remains in the Douglas County Jail. His next court appearance is scheduled for Tuesday.

If convicted, the man could spend up to 136 months, or about 11 years, in prison for each charge, depending on his criminal history.
