A Fulton County man was indicted for allegedly attempting to
coerce a 15-year-old girl into sexual conduct.
Kyle Brackman, 25, of Delta, Ohio, was indicted on one count
of coercion and enticement of a minor.
According to court documents:
A high school principal in Iowa contacted local police in
2017 after learning a 15-year-old student was communicating with Brackman and
the messages were sexual in nature.
Brackman sent the juvenile four images of his genitals and
solicited a video from the girl, according to court documents.
Brackman was arrested on July 28, 2019 after officers
responded to reports of a male making sexually suggestive remarks and gestures
to a 10-year-old girl and a 13-year-old girl, according to court documents
If convicted, the defendant’s sentence will be determined by
the Court after reviewing factors unique to this case, including the
defendant’s prior criminal record, if any, the defendant’s role in the offense
and the characteristics of the violation. In all cases the sentence will not
exceed the statutory maximum and in most cases it will be less than the
maximum.
The Federal Bureau of Investigation investigated the case,
which is being prosecuted by Assistant U.S. Attorney Tracey Ballard Tangeman.
An indictment is only a charge and is not evidence of guilt.
Defendants are entitled to a fair trial in which it will be the government’s
burden to prove guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
