A special agent with the Federal Bureau of Investigations, posing as a 14-year-old girl, met the defendant on an internet site.
During the conversation, the agent repeatedly told the then 61-year-old Mairer that she was only 14. Maier insisted he wanted to pick her up and “make love” to her. Maier drove to a meet-up location and was arrested by law enforcement agents from St. Johns County Sheriff’s Office.
Mair was also convicted of attempted lewd and lascivious battery, unlawful use of a two-way device and soliciting a person believed to be a child for unlawful sexual conduct using computer services or devices.“There are depraved individuals in our communities who prey upon our most precious and vulnerable – our children. These child predators deserve the harshest sentences allowed by law – and the defendant’s life sentence will ensure he never again poses a threat to our Kids.
