Washburn Man Charged with Luring Minor by Computer

Posted:

A 19-year-old Washburn man is charged with luring minors by computer.

Bryan Thiel began talking with a 13-year-old girl on Facebook about sex.

After getting a search warrant, a Bismarck investigator was able to obtain their messages.

Thiel talked to the girl about performing sexual acts on her and about meeting to have sex.

The girl told Bismarck police that Thiel was aware she was 13. In an interview Thiel confirmed he did know the girls age.

He also admitted to sending the messages but says he didn't plan to actually follow through.

Bond is set at $1500 and Thiel is ordered to have no contact with the victim.
