Prosecutors charged a 20-year-old Conway man with sexual indecency with a child on Wednesday in the 13th case of its kind investigated by Conway Police Department since July 2007.
Dominique French, 20, of the 600 block of West Haven Drive was arrested Monday by CPD detectives, who said French gave a vivid description of his own anatomy to an online personality whom he thought was 14. Police said French later showed up for sex with the supposed girl at Ingram and Willow streets, a pre-arranged location marked by Pine Street Free Clinic and Robinson Cemetery.
Officers reported that the undercover detective posing as a 14-year-old had originally been contacted by a suspect, presumably French, who said "hi" and asked how old she was. As the chat went on, the suspect asked about her parents and when they would be home. In arranging a meeting place with the supposed girl, police say the suspect told her to wear certain clothes that would facilitate "easy access" for sex.
French was free from Faulkner County Detention Center Wednesday night on $2,500 bond.
