McCook man arrested for sexual assault, online child enticement
LINCOLN, Neb. -- A McCook man is in custody after police said he solicited sex online from two Lincoln minors, according to a report on klkntv.com.
31-year-old Adam Brunswick of McCook was arrested Tuesday on two counts of first degree sexual assault and electronic child enticement. In May, two 15-year-old girls from Lincoln met Brunswick on social networking website meetme.com, according to investigators. They said Brunswick and the girls exchanged phone numbers and kept in touch through text messaging.
Last summer, the two girls agreed to meet Brunswick at Ballard Park in northeast Lincoln and said the two performed sex acts on Brunswick in exchange for cigarettes.
One of the girls told her mother, who then called police.
"I encourage all parents to have discussions with your children about the dangers of meeting strangers online and basic internet safety," Lincoln Police Officer Katie Flood said. "These talks can be uncomfortable, but I guarantee they're less uncomfortable than the talks you'll have after a crime like this."
Investigators said there were talks among the girls and Brunswick to meet again to perform sex acts for money, but that didn't happen.
Authorities said Brunswick claimed to be in his twenties, and the girls portrayed themselves as being 18. But police said Brunswick indicated he knew they were younger.
