Tyler, TX - Michigan Man Sentenced for Coercion and Enticement of a Child in East Texas
A 22-year-old Harrison, Michigan man has been sentenced for child exploitation violations in the Eastern District of Texas, announced U.S. Attorney Joseph D. Brown today.
Daniel Wayne Little, II, pleaded guilty on May 13, 2019, to coercion and enticement of a child and was sentenced to 240 months in federal prison today by U.S. District Judge Jeremy D. Kernodle.
According to information presented in court, over a 10-month period between December 2016 and October 2017, Little pursued an inappropriate relationship with a 10-year-old child.

Little was indicted by a federal grand jury on Nov. 14, 2018.
