DENVER - A 52-year-old Georgia man was arrested after coming to Colorado to allegedly meet someone for sex that he believed to be an underage girl online.
James Lee Pierce was arrested by First Judicial District Attorney investigators on April 17.
The underage teen was actually an undercover investigator.
On Dec. 31, 2013, an investigator with the DA's Child Sex Offender Internet Investigations Unit was contacted online by Pierce. The investigator was in a social-networking site portraying himself as a child under the age of 15. The communication from Pierce is alleged to have become sexually graphic and to have continued over the next three months.
According to the arrest affidavit, in addition to the sexually graphic language, Pierce asked the person he believed to be an underage teen to send him naked pictures. He also sent sexually graphic photos of himself to the purported underage teen.
Pierce has prior convictions for child molestation. The DA's office also says he was arrested on child rape and sodomy charges in the past.
Pierce was arrested on suspicion of Internet luring of a child, Internet sexual exploitation of a child and attempted sexual assault of a child.
Pierce is being held on $20,000 cash bond. He is expected back in court on April 24 for filing of charges.
