Sebastian Morales, 22, of Austin pleaded guilty to felony soliciting a child through electronic communication to engage in sexual conduct as part of a plea agreement on Friday in Mower County District Court.

Another charge of felony soliciting a child through electronic communication to engage in sexual conduct and two charges of felony engaging in electronic communication relating or describing sexual conduct with a child will be dismissed at the sentencing.

The court complaint says a man complained to Austin police that a 22-year-old man, later identified as Morales, had solicited his 14-year-old daughter for sex. He had viewed a conversation on her Facebook account between her and a man identifying himself as “Perico Mor Less” in which Morales said he would but her a vaping device in exchange for sex.

Despite the victim informing him of her age, he still solicited her for sex.

The detective viewed other messages, sent over the course of three days, in which Morales invited the victim to engage in sex or a sexual activity. In one message, he invited the victim to come to his residence in the 700 block of Fourth Avenue Southwest. The victim frequently reminded Morales of her age, according to the court complaint.

Morales was arrested on Feb. 27 and his cell phone was seized. He claimed someone had “hacked” his Facebook account and that he did not know the victim, but a review of Morales Facebook account showed that he and the victim were “friends.”

A review of Morales’ criminal history shows prior convictions for theft and drug possession.

Morales will be sentenced on Nov. 1.
