WICHITA, KAN. – A Texas man was sentenced today to 25 years
in federal prison for taking a Hutchinson, Kan., girl across state lines for
sex, U.S. Attorney Stephen McAllister said.
Juan Carlos Carmona, 37, Houston, Texas, pleaded guilty to
one count of traveling from Texas to Kansas to have sex with a minor and one
count of transporting a minor from Kansas to Texas to have sex with her.
In his plea, Carmona admitted that in mid-2017 he began
communicating over the internet with a minor female. In April 2018, he traveled
from Houston to Hutchinson, Kan., to meet the 15-year-old. His purpose was to
obtain a hotel room and to have sex with the girl. After doing so, he returned
to Houston.
In May 2018, Carmona returned to Kansas and picked up the
15-year-old girl. He transported her to Houston, where he intended to have sex
with her.
McAllister commended the FBI and Assistant U.S. Attorney
Jason Hart for their work on the case.
