The Fort Lauderdale Police Department, in conjunction with the South Florida Internet Crimes Against Children Task Force, arrested David R. Forget, 27, on charges of traveling to meet a minor to accomplish a sex act and using a computer to solicit a child for a sex act.

According to investigators Forget, who is a Plantation resident and a registered sex offender, contacted an undercover Fort Lauderdale detective on the Internet who was posing as a 15-year-old female. Forget expressed his desire to meet her to engage in a detailed sex act. The conversation continued as Forget asked the “teen” to wear provocative clothing and to meet him at a specific location at a specific time.

On Sunday at approximately 2 p.m., Forget arrived at that location where he was arrested.

Forget has prior arrests and convictions for similar sex crimes.

Anyone with information regarding this crime is encouraged to contact Detective Robert Mauro at (954) 828-6871 or Broward County Crime Stoppers at (954) 493-TIPS (8477).
