TUCSON – A State Grand Jury has indicted two Arizona men, David James Seefeld, and Hector Gonzalez Jr., for allegedly soliciting sex online from undercover agents posing as young teens on social media.

Seefeld, age 20, and Gonzalez, age 28, are both charged with one count of Luring a Minor for Sexual Exploitation and one count of Attempted Sexual Conduct with a Minor.

According to the Arizona Attorney General’s Office, the indictments arise out of a multi-agency online undercover investigation called Operation Monsoon. During the week-long operation, undercover agents posing as minors were solicited by adults online to meet and engage in sex acts. Seefeld and Gonzalez are accused of arriving at a private residence in the Tucson area to complete the solicited sex acts.

Seefeld is also charged with three additional counts of Furnishing Items to Minors. According to the indictment, Seefeld sent three nude pictures of himself to an undercover officer posing as a young teen.
