A man who allegedly tried to solicit sex with a minor in 2017 was sentenced Tuesday in DeKalb County Criminal Court.
43 year old Jason Dwayne Johnson entered a plea to solicitation of a minor and received a two year suspended sentence and his name will be on the state’s sex offender registry.
Sheriff Patrick Ray said that from April, 2017 to November 27, 2017 “Johnson did by electronic communication intentionally request, persuade, invite, or attempt to induce a person (female) whom he knows or should know is less than 18 years of age to engage in conduct that if completed would constitute a violation by the soliciting adult of the offense of statutory rape”.
