NJ man guilty of sex with Pa. teen met on Web
Criminal Law
A New Jersey man faces up to 40 years in prison when he's sentenced for twice traveling to western Pennsylvania to have sex with a teenage girl he met on the Internet.
Twenty-nine-year-old Andrew Luko, of Bridgeton, N.J. pleaded guilty Wednesday to two counts each of statutory sexual assault and aggravated indecent assault.
Cambria County prosecutors say Luko came to Pennsylvania twice in 2007 to have sex with the Johnstown-area girl in motels. She was 14 when he first visited in March of that year, and she had turned 15 by the time he visited for three days that July.
Police tracked Luko using motel records and his vehicle registration.
