A 35-year-old man will spend the next two years in prison for attempted rape and possessing an obscene sexual performance by a child in the village of Weedsport.
Jason Stein was one of 11 people arrested in June 2016 during a prostitution sting in Cayuga County. At the time, New York State Police said investigators posted a fake online ad for a mother-daughter prostitution team stating that the daughter was 12 years old.
Stein answered the ad, intending to have sex with the woman and her daughter in exchange for money. He was subsequently arrested and charged with first-degree attempted rape and second-degree attempted patronizing a person for prostitution. He was also charged with possessing a video of an adult female having sex with an 8-year-old girl.
