Posted By Okabe & Haushalter on Feb 3, 2010 5:30am PST
A registered sex offender is back in court again after soliciting oral sex from a 12-year-old girl.
According to police, the girl's mother said 41-year-old Marco Julio Gonzalez offered her daughter $1,000 for oral sex last year, and ever since neighbors have been keeping an eye out for him.
When Gonzalez returned to the housing project where the girl lives last week, a resident recognized his vehicle and wrote down the license plate number.
Gonzales was eventually arrested and charged with soliciting sex from a minor. He was released on $40,000 bond the same day he was taken into custody.
Gonzales' previous conviction was for indecent exposure.
Defense for Solicitation Charges
Soliciting sex, whether from an adult or a minor, is always taken very seriously by prosecutors. If you have been charged with
