(KNZA)--A Holton man facing multiple child sex-related charges has entered into a plea agreement.
34-year-old Phillip Hackathorn pleaded no contest last week in Jackson County District Court to two counts of indecent solicitation of a child.
In exchange for the plea, ten additional counts were dismissed.
Sentencing was set for October 25.
Hackathorn was arrested in February on a district court warrant following an investigation by the Jackson County Sheriff’s Office into alleged incidents involving a 15-year-old occurring between May and August of last year.
During the investigation, the sheriff’s office served search warrants on Hackathorn’s Facebook and Snapchat accounts.
He remains free on a $50,000 bond.
