Hackensack NJ, Acting Attorney General Andrew J. Bruck announced that a man was sentenced to prison today for attempting to lure a 14-year-old girl he met on social media for a sexual encounter. The “girl” in reality was an undercover detective participating in “Operation Home Alone,” a multi-agency undercover operation in April 2019 that targeted individuals who allegedly were using social media to lure underage girls and boys for sex.
